There are currently 26 staff, equating to 22.8 full-time equivalent posts, assigned to the Department's local office in Bray. This is an increase since 2007 as set out in the table below. While there are no plans to assign additional staff to Bray local office, I can assure the Deputy that the staffing needs for all areas within the Department are continuously reviewed, having regard to workloads, management priorities and the competing demands arising, to ensure that the best use is made of all available resources with a view to providing an efficient service to those who rely on the services provided by the Department. Staffing details for Bray Local Office as at 1st January for the years 2007 to 2011
