The information I seek are the results of the survey that is noted below (OGCIO survey). Can I take you up on your offer of that information being provided to me please. I would be grateful if the number and grades of IT staff could be provided from that survey. I understand that it’s a point in time, that it was voluntary, that not all agencies responded and that it’s not validated. If possible could the information be provided in an excel spreadsheet please. Separately, I wonder if DPER has census data for each of the agencies that did reply to the survey. I understand that the HSE publishes its staff census each month. Could that be forward also? Again, I had presumed that an approx. number of total staff was compiled for that survey which would give a ratio of IT to total staff. Happy to accept that - with the above caveats - if available.
