Civil Service Regulation (Amendment) Act, 1958

In short

This law amends the Civil Service Regulation Act, 1956, primarily concerning the tenure of civil servants in certain positions and the application of the Regulation Act to staff of the Houses of the Oireachtas.

What it regulates

  • The tenure of office for individuals appointed to "excluded positions" within the civil service.
  • Conditions for civil servants serving in a probationary capacity.
  • The application of the Civil Service Regulation Act, 1956, to members of the staff of the Houses of the Oireachtas.

Who it concerns

  • Persons appointed to "excluded positions" in the civil service.
  • Civil servants serving in a probationary capacity.
  • Members of the staff of the Houses of the Oireachtas.

Key points

  • If an order declaring a position "excluded" ceases to be in force, the person holding that position will cease to hold it on that date, unless their services are terminated earlier under section 6 of the Regulation Act.
  • The law modifies the conditions under which a civil servant in a probationary position can be deemed to have failed to fulfil their probation.
  • The Regulation Act will cease to apply to staff of the Houses of the Oireachtas on the earlier of two dates: when a future Act for their regulation comes into operation, or the 17th day of February, 1960.
