The number of staff employed by each local authority at the end of each year since 2008 is set out in the following table on a whole time equivalent basis (WTE). From 2013, a combined staffing figure was returned for Limerick City Council and Limerick County Council. From 2014, a combined staffing figure was returned for Waterford City Council and Waterford County Council and for Tipperary North County Council and Tipperary South County Council. It should be noted also that the 2008 and 2009 figures include Regional Authority staffing numbers; these have been reported separately from September 2010 onwards.
