Question 153: To ask the Minister for Social and Family Affairs the number of posts decentralised to date as part of his Department's decentralisation programme; the location of the decentralised posts in each case; the corresponding number of posts that have been reduced from his Department's Dublin offices to date; and the overall net loss or gain in terms of post numbers as a result of the decentralisation of these posts.

To date, under the Government's programme of decentralisation, 128 posts have relocated from the Department's Dublin offices. 66 posts have decentralised to Sligo and 62 posts to Carrick-on-Shannon.
All 128 posts have relocated from Dublin with their respective business units to either Sligo or Carrick-on-Shannon, thus decreasing the number of posts in the Department's Dublin offices by 128. There is no overall net loss or gain in the number of posts in the Department as a result of these posts decentralising.
