Mr. John Hogan:

In this instance, I think it was quicker actually, but I know there is a very conscious effort within the PAS system at the moment to increase the responsiveness by which it deals with us and other Departments. In the plan that we look forward to, we have an increase in our expected headcount over the next number of years, subject to my colleagues from Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform giving us the approval around the whole thing. We have drawn a number of measures to recruit the type of people we need. There will be that direct recruitment but also to the extent that we have utilised the PAS system, we will continue to do so.
