I wish to draw the Deputy's attention to the fact that applicants may opt to change preferences at any stage during the transition phase and there may not be a precise grade match in each case between advertised posts and CAF applicants. These issues are being worked through as the programme is rolled out. The Deputy may wish to note that one public service body, the Combat Poverty Agency decentralising to County Monaghan, is also over-subscribed.
