The number of staff employed in each Division of the Department will be forwarded to the Deputy shortly, as the data is not readily available and will take some time to collate.

The information requested regarding staff that have left the Divisions over the past three years is not maintained in the manner requested. Figures are held on overall retirements, resignations and transfers out of the Department, and not by specific office or region, nor by internal transfers and redeployments within the regions. This data will also be forwarded to the Deputy.
