The following table gives the number of civil servants, their grade and location within my Department, who have availed of the Cost Neutral Early Retirement Scheme and to whom the provisions of the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest (No. 2) Act 2009 apply. Considerable readjustments have already taken place within my Department in terms of staff taking on additional duties to continue the service provided by these and other retiring staff. The position will continue to be monitored closely and further actions to address the resulting manpower challenges across the Department will be considered by the Department in consultation with me.

The information sought in respect of the agencies is a day to day matter for them and I have asked them to respond directly to the Deputy.
