Note:
Over the period concerned internal reorganisation led to the creation of some new units and the merging of others.
An additional 24.17 WTEs transferred into my Department during 2009 as a result of the transfer of youth affairs responsibilities from the Department of Education and Science, other functions from the Department of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs and the dissolution of the National Council on Aging and Older People and the Women's Health Council under the rationalisation of agencies programme.
