It is understood, following clarification by the Deputy, that the question refers to staff moves out of the Department/Office within six months of their transfer into the Department/Office. Ninety five (95) staff from other Departments/Offices transferred in to my Department under the rules that apply to the Central Applications Facility for decentralisation to Tullamore. One person opted to return to their parent Department within six months of their arrival.
I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that two officers who joined Revenue for decentralisation opted to return to their original Departments within six months of their arrival. I am informed by the Office of Public Works that no officer who joined the OPW for decentralisation has moved to any other Department or Office.
