The Local Government Act 2001 removed the distinction between officers and non-officers for purposes of employment under a local authority. All local authority staff are now classified as employees.
A breakdown of local authority employees as officers and servants from 1997 to 2002 is available in the Department of Finance publication, Budgetary and Economic Statistics, which also includes employee numbers for 2003-2005. This publication is available on the Department of Finance website.
