My Department does not compile data regarding the number of persons employed by town councils. However the total number of permanent and temporary staff employed across all 34 local authorities at end of December 2009 was 30,564 and 1,691 respectively, compared to 31,897 and 3,166 at end of December 2008. A breakdown by authority is provided in the table.
