At the time of the Haddington Road Agreement, four officers of my Department were on career breaks. Of these, two could not be immediately accommodated back into the Department when their career break ended and were therefore placed on a redeployment panel. One officer had to wait the full 12 months before resuming duty at my Department and the other was offered a 12 month secondment to another Department/Office while on the redeployment panel. This officer will return to my Department when the secondment ends shortly.
