Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 17 July 2014
309. Deputy Sean Fleming asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation the total value of bonus payments made to staff under the aegis of his Department in 2013 and to date in 2014; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [32273/14]
View answerThere were no bonuses paid to any of the staff of my Department and Offices on the years in question.
Salaries paid by agencies to staff are subject to contracts which, in latter years, have been subject to specific clearance by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform.
I have asked all agencies under the aegis of my Department to advise me of any instances of bonus payment in 2013 and to date in 2014 and I will communicate that information to the Deputy as soon as it is available.
