Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 May 2013
543. Deputy Paschal Donohoe asked the Minister for Defence the current pension entitlements in respect of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 7 who worked in his Department general headquarters between 1977 and 1993; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25089/13]
View answerI am satisfied that the retirement benefits of the person in question were correctly calculated in accordance with the relevant Department of Finance circular. Full details of the method of calculation have been provided to the person in question. If she wishes to have any further information my Department would be happy to provide it. I can confirm that the person concerned is in receipt of her full pension entitlements under the terms of the non-contributory pension scheme for non-established State employees. Over the years, the rate of pension paid to the person concerned by the office of the paymaster general has been revised in line with centrally set pay and pension rates.
