Vol. 516 No. 4

Written Answers. - Salary Payments.

Noel Ahern

Question:

55 Mr. N. Ahern asked the Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources the situation with payment of increases and arrears of salary under the PCW restructuring clause for engineering grades in BIM who are retired; the reason for the delay in finalising this; the way in which retired administrative staff were settled over one year ago; the increase for an engineer grade 3; the new retired rate for the maximum of scale; the date to which claims will be backdated; and if interest on arrears will be paid. [8421/00]

The Department of Finance has recently conveyed sanction, subject to certain conditions, for the payment of an increase to engineering and technician grades in BIM under the PCW restructuring clause.

The details involved will shortly be the subject of discussions between the management and staff interests in BIM and pending the outcome of those discussions, I consider that it would be inappropriate to comment further on the matter at this juncture.
