439. To ask the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform the steps he and his Department intend to take to ensure semi-State bodies and other organisations and bodies under various Government Departments advertise vacant positions through the Public Appointments Service and publicjobs.ie that is in a clear and transparent manner; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Public Appointments Service already advertises a large number of public service posts on publicjobs.ie when requested to by the relevant body. My Department promotes the availability of this service to public service bodies on an on-going basis.

Filling of vacancies in State Agencies and Commercial Semi-State Bodies is often a matter for individual organisations and Boards. The Public Appointments Service has advised me that they would be pleased to discuss the advertising of vacancies on publicjobs.ie with any State Agency or Organisation.
