I attach a tabular statement which lists the data the Deputy seeks for the years 2000 to 2004 for the civil service. This is based on the most recent available data supplied by Departments/Offices to my Department (for technical reasons not all Offices are included). I understand that the question in respect of the wider public service has been referred to the respective responsible Ministers for direct reply.
