Joint Oireachtas Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions

Public Sector Recruitment Panels: Public Appointments Service

4:00 pm

Ms Fiona Tierney:

It is an interesting question. We have an input into the selection criteria where we are designing the function of the job, not the language in which the job will be transacted. I am making a differentiation there. The client Department or agency would advise us of a requirement for a principal officer, for example, who needs to be able to transact business in Irish as well as in English.
