I propose to take Questions Nos. 968 to 970, inclusive, together.
There were no secondments of staff from my Department to private firms from 2010 to date.
The following staff were seconded from external private firms to my Department from 2010 to date:
Period of secondment | Position In DCENR | Seconded from |
---|---|---|
June 2009 – December 2011 | Financial Advisor | KPMG |
April 2012 – June 2014 | Financial Advisor | PWC |
June 2014 – November 2014 | Project Manager | Bord Gais Energy (Centrica) |
November 2014 to date | Project Manager | Bord Gais Energy (Centrica) |
The specialised expertise provided by the secondment arrangements in the period 2009 to-date, which was not available in-house, facilitated in delivering business outcomes across the Department.
