Sorry to hear you're waiting so long Can I ask if you don't mind, did your extra vetting come back disclosure viewed at all or did it disappear before that stage

It's now gone from the tracking system so I can't see it anymore.

Rang PAS this afternoon and they said there is a batch of candidates awaiting extra clearance due in tomorrow. If we are on it they will contact us tomorrow or Monday.

Got a response for my Garda vetting for the Executive Officer 2016 This may shed some light on the process."The word “disclosure” in this instance means that the National Vetting Bureau have completed that particular strand of vetting.An Garda Siochana vetting is a 3 strand process and can take up to 12 weeks. It is a very in-depth process and a lot of Garda Resources are involved. We hope to have candidates cleared prior to this time but unfortunately we cannot guarantee this".

Got the same. I wouldn’t be in a position to train in portlaois for 4/5 weeks so will have to pass. Doesn’t look like flexi time availble either?

There is no flexi time in the Prison Service and office hours in most prisons are 8-8 so someone has to be there at all times during those hours.

So, is it okay to turn down?

The email is a bit confusing but is clear that if you go to the orientation day, you can decide to say no and return to the general panel.

Yes. You can go as far as the Orientation and still turn it down. 9% more in the salary so might appeal to some people

I also know a prison officer, there is a uniform for this role as it used to be the prison officers that did the role themselves .

I’m definitely going to go to the orientation day for the prison service but I’m a bit nervous about turning it down and going back on the panel. Does anyone know do you go to the end of the list or next in line?

Ertin

Are the positions with the prison service considered separate from the main panel & if not interested can just be ignored?
