In the year to date, my Department has incurred expenditure totalling approximately €127,000 on the provision of agency staff. This expenditure relates to the engagement of agency nursing staff in various military installations. The State agencies under the aegis of the Department of Defence are the Civil Defence Board and the Army Pensions Board. There has been no expenditure incurred in relation to agency staff in these agencies.
