My Department is responsible for workforce planning for the local government sector, including monitoring of local government sector employment levels. To this end, my Department gathers quarterly data on staff numbers in local authorities; however, the data gathered does not provide a breakdown in respect of the number of council staff in west County Cork excluding administrative staff. Accordingly, the information requested is not available in my Department.
High-level staffing numbers for the local authority sector are available on the Public Service Numbers Databank which is hosted and maintained by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform and is available at the following link: , providing access to information from 1980 onwards.
