The Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth sought additional resourcing through the Temporary Reassignment Scheme from all Departments to assist with the Ukrainian crisis response. On 19th April, four of my officials, 1 Higher Executive Officer, 1 Administrative Officer and 2 Clerical Officers were assigned to the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth to assist with this critical work. 

All assignments are temporary in nature and in accordance with the Temporary Assignments Scheme. It is currently envisaged that my officials will be required for this work for three months initially.
