I am informed by the Garda authorities that in the case of Garda stations employing individual cleaners, vacancies to be filled are advertised in the relevant local FÁS offices. Local Garda management arranges interviews and, subject to security and medical clearance, the successful candidate commences employment.

In the case of contract cleaning services, I am advised by the Garda authorities that tendering notices are issued from time to time for renewable contracts. The successful tenderer and the potential employees are subject to the same security and confidentiality requirements.
