I propose to take Questions Nos. 129 to 132, inclusive, together.

As previously advised to the Deputy in my reply to his Parliamentary Question (No. 6666/06) of the 21st February, 2006, my Department is not one of the Departments earmarked for decentralisation under the Civil Service Decentralisation Programme. It may be of interest to know that 34 staff in my Department have formally accepted offers to transfer to other Departments which are decentralising.
