Written answers

Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources

In response to the Deputy’s question Civil Service Pensions are a matter for the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform, which will answer in respect of all Departments. I have asked the Agencies under the aegis of my Department to supply the requested information, where relevant, in respect of those Agencies directly to the Deputy.
