Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade
Engagement with UNRWA Deputy Director John Whyte
2:00 am
Mr. John Whyte:
I thank the Cathaoirleach. The figure is approximately 260 all told but it includes 60 or so complementary personnel who are not UNRWA staff as such. We have a jobs creation programme whereby we recruit people from the community to do work. It is like a community employment scheme we might have in Ireland. The figure is approximately 300 staff and 60 complementary personnel.
