Answer

A total of 114 applications were successful including 38 from DVA surplus staff, and 76 from non-surplus staff thereby creating suitable vacancies into which surplus staff could be redeployed. As a result, 110 DVA surpluses (headcount) within the designated area were released or redeployed.

The Scheme has now closed.
