National plan for functional and geographic mobility in Ireland

Reassigning public sector jobs according to changing needs, notably by reducing the concentration of civil servants in Dublin, was one of the measures of the ongoing reform (Action 15). The Civil Service Mobility programme goes even further than expected. The minister announced that more than 2,700 civil servants (i.e. 20% of the total) had filed a mobility request, with 711 wishing to leave the Irish capital.
