Written answers

Minister for Social Protection

The information requested by the Deputy is as shown in the table below.

The information provided is in respect of basic salary only as there are no other allowances or benefits in payment to the staff members concerned. In addition, their pension entitlements are based on the standard civil service model pension schemes.

It should be noted that the Pensions Board is self-financing and that consequently there is no cost to the Exchequer in relation to salary involved.
