The Department of Health do not directly employ any cleaners.

There are currently 5 Service Officers and 1 Head Service Officer employed directly by the Department. These officers are employed as established civil servants who are paid salaries as per the relevant scales.

I have asked the HSE to reply directly to the Deputy whether it employs cleaners and/or service officers; if so, the number of staff employed in each role; the value and length of any related contract.

Details for other bodies under the aegis of my Department are operational matters for the bodies concerned and the Deputy should contact the relevant Director/CEO/Registrar directly.
