The table below sets out the position with regard to training carried out by my Department since 2005. My Department already has staff in many regional locations and training is often carried out locally. CSTDC's relocation to Tullamore has not had any impact on the delivery of training or its associated costs within my Department.

The table below sets out the position regarding staff availing of pre-retirement courses in my Department prior to and since the relocation of the CSTDC to Tullamore in July 2006.
Departmental staff who have to travel to attend training courses are entitled to the rate of travel and subsistence appropriate to their grade. However, since the payment of travel and subsistence is a devolved function in my Department, I am unable to obtain specific data from the various line divisions on the amounts paid, in the time given.
