asked the Taoiseach the total number of civil servants serving in his Department and in the offices under his aegis, in each of the general service grades up to and including paperkeeper, on the latest date for which such information is available; and the total number serving in each departmental grade on that date.

I propose circulating, in the Official Report, a schedule which sets out the data requested by the Deputy, in respect of the Department of the Taoiseach, Roinn na Gaeltachta and the offices under the aegis of my Departments.

Department of the Taoiseach.
