My Department operates the Civil Service travel pass scheme on an annual basis. The closing date for applications is mid-November and travel passes are issued in December each year for the following 12 month period. New entrants may also apply for travel passes in January and February. All applicants must be employed on a permanent basis at the date of application. Officers on probation are also eligible to apply.
