Question:

Written answers

Minister for Justice and Equality

I can inform the Deputy that no such payments have been made to any staff in my Department during the years in question. The Performance-related Awards Scheme, which applied to staff at Assistant Secretary, Deputy Secretary and equivalent grades in the Civil and Public Service, was abolished in 2009.
