Question 196: To ask the Minister for Transport the number of former employees who have been brought back to work on contract, or others employed on contract to do work which has traditionally been done in-house by his Department and the agencies under his authority; and the way in which this practice fits with the intention of an embargo on recruitment.

My Department has the following number of former employees who have been brought back to work on contract, or other employed on contract to do work which has traditionally been done in-house:
Grade | Number | Former Employees |
Retired Driver Tester | 6 | Yes |
Engineer Inspector | 1 | No |
IT Contractors | 2 | No |
My Department's commitment to adhere to the Government's decision on Civil Service numbers will not be affected by the engagement of the above contract staff. With regard to employees in semi-State bodies, this is an operational matter for the agencies concerned.
