Written answers

I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that, historically, there were several departmental grade structures in Revenue which have, through a series of collective agreements in accordance with the C&A scheme, been integrated into the general service. Some departmental grades were still in existence in January 1998 but for the purpose of this reply, the nearest general service grade equivalent has been used throughout.
