The Department of Rural and Community Development was established on 19th July 2017 to provide a renewed and consolidated focus on rural and community development in Ireland.

I can confirm that my Department has no staff seconded to work in other EU member states' public sector. There is no specific scheme available in the Department for such secondments.
