I propose to take Questions Nos. 940 to 942, inclusive, together.

The Department of Public Expenditure and Reform Circular 03/2013 sets out the details of a Staff Exchange Scheme between the Civil Service and the Private Sector, along the lines of the Temporary Staff Transfer Scheme provided for previously under Department of Public Service Circular 10/1979. A copy of Circular 03/2013 can be found on the following website - www.circulars.gov.ie.

No staff from my Department have participated in such a s cheme and there were no secondments under the scheme from external organisations to my Department in the years 2010 to date.
