As Tusla, the Child and Family Agency was set up in 2014 it can provide the number of staff allocated to its Unaccompanied Minors Seeking Asylum teams since establishment which is as follows:-

YearNumber of Staff
December 2014WTE 12.33
December 2015WTE 12.79
September 2016WTE 12.82

Tusla has further advised that it does not hold staffing details for Unaccompanied Minors Seeking Asylum services prior to 2014 as these services were previously funded by the Health Service Executive.
