The Special Civil Service Incentive Career Break Scheme was introduced as a once-off measure that was included in the Supplementary Budget on 7 April 2009. The measure was extended to staff in different areas of the public service, including certain prescribed categories of employees in Vocational Education Committees. The closing date for participation in this scheme has expired and there is no current proposal to extend this scheme.
