My Department currently has four staff members suspended from work pending the completion of investigations under the Civil Service Disciplinary Code.
- | Grade | Suspended From | Reason for Suspension |
---|---|---|---|
1. | HEO | August 2012 | Alleged Fraud |
2. | EO | June 2015 | Alleged Inappropriate Behaviour |
3. | HEO | September 2015 | Alleged Inappropriate Behaviour |
4. | EO | November 2015 | Alleged Inappropriate Behaviour |
In relation to case 1 above this is being dealt with by the Gardaí, who had requested that the Department delay action until completion of their investigations.
In relation to cases 2, 3 and 4 above, the investigations are now complete and appropriate action is being taken in accordance with the Civil Service Disciplinary Code.
