All staff in my Department are Civil Servants and are appointed in compliance with the Public Service Management (Recruitment and Appointments) Act 2004.

While the great majority of these civil servants appointments are on foot of a competitive process in accordance with the “Code of Practice for Appointment to Positions in the Civil Service and Public Service”, a small number of Ministerial civil service appointments are also made, in compliance with the Guidelines on Staffing of Ministerial Offices issued by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform.
