I can inform the Deputy that by early January 2008, under my Department's Decentralisation programme, three hundred and sixty-eight posts from seven bodies under the aegis of my Department will have transferred to seven different locations around the country. Within that number, two hundred and twenty-three officers will have transferred from Dublin and one hundred and forty-five from provincial locations. I am also informed that there have been one hundred and ninety-three transfers of staff from my own Department to other decentralising Departments.
