Vote 18 - National Shared Services Office (1 Feb 2018) Seán Fleming: That is good. The NSSO is a large employer with 700 employees and that number will reach 1,000 when the finance management function transfers to it. What quality control system is in place relating to output by staff? Is there a rule of thumb that one person should be able to process X hundred per week? How does Ms Lyons know who is efficient or inefficient in the organisation?

Vote 18 - National Shared Services Office (1 Feb 2018) Seán Fleming: I acknowledge the issue of suppressed posts does not come under Ms Murphy-Fagan's remit and she may be unable to answer this question but she may be able to provide general information. If a Department or an office transfers the function to the NSSO and 30 of its staff were involved in payroll and HR services, how do we know some of those posts have not been suppressed? Some staff, for...

Vote 18 - National Shared Services Office (1 Feb 2018) Seán Fleming: Staff go on full pay for three months sick leave and I referred to a pensionable rate of pay earlier. Public servants sometimes go on low payments and remain in the system. Ms Murphy-Fagan said the office does not come across this much. Am I using the wrong terminology?

Vote 18 - National Shared Services Office (1 Feb 2018) Seán Fleming: Can Ms Murphy-Fagan send the committee an information note because it is complex? People often ask us what rate they will be on at the end of their six months sick leave? I do not seek exact figures.

Vote 18 - National Shared Services Office (1 Feb 2018) Seán Fleming: With regard to security, Ms Murphy-Fagan said it would not be a good idea for everything to be in one building in case something happened the building. If something happened in one of the big offices in Dublin or Killarney where many of the payments are processed, that would create an enormous strain. Is the information available to other offices, for example, if one office goes down?

Vote 18 - National Shared Services Office (1 Feb 2018) Seán Fleming: Moving on to sick leave, an onus could be put on an employee on sick leave to notify the NSSO. Many of the overpayments related to people who had been on sick leave and who had not provided medical certificates. The office probably does not do it now. I know the manager. A lot of the overpayments are due to people being out on sick leave and certificates did not come. I know that it would...
