    Confirmation of the number of voluntary redundancies at the Ministry of Education

    Confirmation of the number of voluntary redundancies at the Ministry of Education


    The ministry went through two rounds -- the first between late August and early September, the second between late October and mid-November.

    One hundred and 51 eligible applications were received during those dates.

    Official information from the Education Ministry shows 85 applications were accepted and 58 declined - a number of others either had been withdrawn or put on hold.
