Arrangements such as career breaks and so on come within the remit of the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform. That Minister makes the rules in this regard, which apply across the service. Civil servants in the Department of Finance are as entitled as other civil servants to avail of any such scheme. I suggest the Deputy take up that matter with the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Howlin.
