I wish to inform the Deputy that there are no civil servants seconded to work in my Constituency. I have one Personal Assistant working in my Constituency and there is no cost to my Department as the individual is paid by the Houses of the Oireachtas.
With regard to Minister of State Eoghan Murphy, I understand he has one Parliamentary Assistant and one Secretarial Assistant working in his Constituency. Again there is no cost to the Department as these individuals are also paid by the Houses of the Oireachtas.
