Certain grades of care staff are employed on a roster basis in the Children Detention School and due to the nature of the work involved, there are no plans to remove them from that system.

I understand that the Deputy is referring to public servants who retired during the period 1 January 2010 to the 29 February 2012. I can only answer this question in relation to my own Department and agencies that fall under its remit. In that respect, I understand that the National Educational Welfare Board has recently appointed one member of staff as interim Chief Executive Officer on a short term fixed contract who retired from the Department of Education & Skills during the period specified by the Deputy.
I can confirm that no other such persons have been rehired by my Department, the Ombudsman for Children's Office, the Adoption Authority of Ireland, the Family Support Agency or the Children Detention Schools.
