Answer

The GCSB reports on its workforce profile as part of its annual reporting process. The GCSB does not publicly provide a more detailed breakdown of staffing and vacancy data as this information could provide an indication of capability or capacity in a particular area. Disclosure of such information could be prejudicial to national security.
