Bernard Durkan (Kildare North, Fine Gael)

To better deal with the situation inherited from the previous Administration, when will it be possible to expedite the introduction and process through the House the Bill to remove barriers to mobility and redeployment from statutory recruitment and appointment procedures for posts in the civil and public service? The item concerned is No. 118. It would be wise to bring this forward as soon as possible given the need for redeployment of people from one Department to another arising from the current economic situation. Are there any plans to do so?
