1799. To ask the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources the number of staff under the remit of his Department that have applied to be transferred to Department or State agency offices located outside the Dublin region in each of the years 2014 to 2016 and to date in 2017, in tabular form; the estimated average cost incurred for each staff member that relocated outside the Dublin region; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Staff who wish to transfer to other departments apply through the Central Applications Facility (CAF), which is operated and maintained by the Public Appointments Service, or directly, if appropriate to the relevant department they wish to transfer to. My Department does not directly accept or process applications with regard to transfer requests to other government departments or agencies outside of Dublin. Any relocation costs are borne by staff members, with no cost to the Department.
