In line with centrally agreed arrangements, the Department maintains formal transfer lists for Clerical Officers and Staff Officers. In the Laois/Offaly area, formal transfer lists are maintained for the Department's offices at Tullamore and Portlaoise. The table below details the number of staff at each grade awaiting a transfer to both locations.
Location | Clerical Officer | Staff Officer |
Tullamore | 74 | 9 |
Portlaoise | 116 | 7 |
The Department does not have an office in Roscrea. As a consequence of the moratorium on recruitment, any posts to be filled in these locations will be filled by lateral transfer from within existing civil service numbers.
