Fire Brigade Recruit Decision Doesn’t Make Sense<\/p>\n

Sinn F\u00e9in Dublin South West TD Se\u00e1n Crowe has supported \u00a0calls for \u00a0Dublin City Council to look again at its decision to begin a costly recruitment drive to fill the 28 vacancies for the Dublin Fire Brigade.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Deputy Crowe believes that the Council should recruit from the Dublin Fire Brigade a recruits Panel which was disbanded earlier this year.<\/div>\n

Deputy Se\u00e1n Crowe said:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI welcome the decision of Dublin City Council \u00a0and Dublin Fire Brigade \u00a0to fill 53 of the \u00a080 vacancies in the fire brigade service. It is also good news that agreement has at last been reached on filling the bulk of the existing vacancies and that potentially this will save substantial amounts of money in overtime.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cIt doesn’t make any sense to me \u00a0that Dublin City Council is now going to begin a costly external recruitment drive to recruit \u00a028 \u00a0fire fighters when it has already spent \u20ac300,000 on putting together a panel of suitable candidates for the Fire Brigade. \u00a0The new recruit\u2019s panel was disbanded earlier this year and many of those who won a place on it are \u00a0ready, willing to work, and most importantly \u00a0qualified for the vacancies that are now available.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cDublin City Council needs to think again about their his plan for a new recruitment drive and instead fill the vacancies from the former recruits panel. \u00a0 This would speed up the process,fill the vacancies quicker and possibly save hundreds of thousands of euros that could be better spent on front line services\u201d<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
