All Departments are subject to an Employment Control Framework (ECF) as determined by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform.

The only staff from my Department who have been made available for redeployment are those who could not be facilitated, due to ECF constraints, with a return to work following the expiry of their career breaks.

I understand that the person in question recently applied to be considered for a transfer to the Department’s office in Limerick. In line with the Department’s standard practice, his place on the transfer list has been reached and he has accepted the offer of a transfer which will take place shortly.
