I propose to take Questions Nos. 376 to 378, inclusive, together.
The National Gallery of Ireland is an equal opportunities employer operating an open recruitment policy fully in accordance with Government policy and, as such, does not inquire as to whether a potential employee is on the live register. The institution has provided employment to more than twenty people from the local community over the past 20 years.
The gallery has established a panel to fill temporary positions that may become available during the year. The panel is comprised of applicants who responded to public advertisements and from unsolicited inquiries. These positions are filled in accordance with the gallery's recruitment policies and procedures. There are 125 full-time employees in the National Gallery of Ireland.
