Seven staff are currently seconded from my Department to other organisations. To the best of my knowledge none of these staff took up these seconded roles on the basis that it was not their intention to return to their position within the Department.
While different conditions can apply to individual secondments, depending on their particular circumstances, my Department is guided by the advice issued to all Government Departments by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform in relation to secondments, which is available at the following link - hr.per.gov.ie/en/corporate-pages/career/mobility/secondment/.
