Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 18 October 2011
68 Deputy Mary Lou McDonald asked the Taoiseach the saving to the Exchequer if all existing public service pension payments to former employees of State agencies under the aegis of his Department were capped at €35,000 per year. [29787/11]
View answerThe National Economic and Social Development Office (NESDO) is the only State Agency under the aegis of my Department. The NESDO, which was established under the NESDO Act 2006, is the body corporate for the National Economic and Social Council (NESC). No former employees of the NESDO/NESC are in receipt of public service pension payments so the question of savings does not arise.
