View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 78 and 79 together.
All NAMA staff are employees of the NTMA and under section 42 of the National Asset Management Agency Act 2009, the NTMA assigns staff to NAMA. Staff numbers assigned to NAMA are as follows:

Information on NTMA salary bands is published in the NTMA Annual Report and Accounts 2012 (as set out in a table). The report is available on the NTMA website (www.ntma.ie).
I am advised that 87 staff assigned to NAMA had salaries of over €100,000 at end 2011 while 51 staff assigned to NAMA had salaries of over €100,000 at end 2010.

Notes:
1. The public service pension deduction is applied to NTMA employees.
2. In December 2011 the Minister for Finance requested NTMA employees whose salaries exceeded €200,000 to waive 15 per cent of salary or such amount of salary as exceeds €200,000 if application of the full 15 per cent reduction would bring their salary to below €200,000. Reductions in respect of employees waiving such amounts are reflected in the above table.
