Much of the data the Deputy is seeking is readily available on my Department's website, www.per.gov.ie, including employment numbers by sector. In relation to the wider public service such data is published, as matter of course, by the various public bodies. The table shows a breakdown of the main Civil Service grades since 2001. This gives an indication of the ratio of management to other grades.
