161.

As the Deputy will be aware, the Public Appointments Service (PAS) is an independent, statutory body which provides professional recruitment and selection services to the civil and public service.

I understand from the PAS that the following Civil Service General Service grades were recruited for the years 2010 to 2016 as follows;

2012Administrative Officer

2013Administrative Officer, Third Secretary

2014Administrative Officer, Clerical Officer, Assistant Principal*, Principal*

2015Administrative Officer, Clerical Officer, Executive Officer, Assistant Principal, First Secretary and Principal

2016- Administrative Officer, Third Secretary, Clerical Officer, Executive Officer, Assistant Principal, First Secretary and Principal.

* posts with specialist expertise i.e. OGP, Peoplepoint

The following Table contains Civil Service General Service grade numbers for the period 2010 to the end of the first quarter 2016. The figures do not include Prison Officers, Professional/Technical grades, staff in the National Gallery or staff recruited locally abroad by the Department of Foreign Affairs.
