Vol. 456 No. 7

Written Answers. - Subsistence Rates.

Hugh Byrne

Question:

95 Mr. H. Byrne asked the Minister for the Environment the rate of subsistence payable to employees of his Department and all local authority employees for each of the years 1980 to 1985. [14645/95]

The following table provides the information requested in relation to employees of my Department. The rates are determined by the Department of Finance.

The A, B and C rates in the table also apply to local authority officers.

The subsistence rates payable to non-officers is a matter for each local authority. Such payments would only arise infrequently: it is understood that where they do, payment would be at the class C rate or lower.
