Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 8 June 2016
684. Deputy Mattie McGrath asked the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs the number of persons in Tusla, the Child and Family Agency, who are or were being paid over the recommended public sector salary cap over the past three years in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [14985/16]
View answerI understand that the Deputy is referring to a 2011 Government Decision which introduced a general pay ceiling of €200,000 for future appointments to higher positions across the public service and a general pay ceiling of €250,000 for future appointments of CEO posts within Commercial State Companies. I can confirm that over the past three years no employee of Tusla has received a salary in excess of this general pay ceiling.
