972. Deputy Mary Lou McDonald asked the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs the number of civil servants engaged in constituency work on her behalf; and the salaries, accommodation costs and expenses involved or associated with these duties. [13679/14]
View answerThere are currently two civil servants, at Clerical Officer level, engaged in constituency work at my Department. Both are paid on the approved Clerical Officer salary scale and the gross salary for the two staff combined is €72,534. This is exclusive of PRSI and superannuation costs. As the office is based within my Department, there are no additional accommodation costs or expenses associated with these duties.
