My Department oversees workforce planning for the local government sector, including the 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 details in terms of the number of indoor and outdoor staff employed by each local authority. Accordingly, the information requested is not available in my Department, but may be obtained directly from Tipperary County Council.

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.
