Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 15 April 2014
284. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform the amount paid to each qualifying party leader in respect of Deputies, not including payments made in respect of Senators; the amount paid to each Independent Deputy under section 10 of the Ministerial and Parliamentary Offices Act 1938 in each year of the 28, 29, 30 and 31 Dáileanna; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17940/14]
View answerThe following tables set out the full amounts paid under the relevant legislation to each qualifying Party Leader and to Independent Deputies for the years 2001 to 2013 inclusive. The current data systems in use allow for detailed payment records in the manner requested from 2001 only - the system does not permit detailing the payments prior to 2001.
