I understand that the Deputy is referring to persons employed by bodies under the aegis of my Department through recruitment agencies.

I have been advised that of the 18 bodies under the aegis of my Department, 7* bodies have persons employed through agencies. I have included the number of persons in the following table in respect of these 7 bodies, as requested.

Of the remaining 11 bodies, I am advised that none have persons employed through agencies.
