93 Mr. Aylward asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will give details of the rate paid to full time home helps in each health board area; if the amounts vary and if he will indicate the reason. [18323/97]
The salary scale for full-time home helps with effect from 1 July 1997 is in the range of £212.98-£225.19 per week. This is the same rate as applies in the health services to group I non-officer grades. This incremental scale applies throughout the country and is increased from time to time in accordance with increases granted to non-nursing personnel.
