I propose to take Questions Nos. 386, 390 and 402 together.

There are nine persons in my Department available for redeployment. Six have already been redeployed to other Departments. The maximum time a person has been awaiting redeployment has been fifteen months and this arises due to the particular business specialty of the persons concerned.

In relation to the state agencies under the aegis of my Department thirty four people are available for redeployment with 28 deployed already. The maximum waiting time for this sector is 12 months and again this is due to the specific nature of their business specialty.

Every effort is being made by my Department and the agencies under its aegis to progress these redeployments in line with the agreed procedures.
