Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 3 July 2018
100. Deputy Jonathan O'Brien asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform the planned unwinding of FEMPI measures in line with the PSSA for each of the years 2019 to 2023, disaggregated by wage bracket. [28726/18]
View answerPlease see the following two tables.
Table 1 provides a full breakdown of costs in relation to the PSSA, on a yearly basis and also by pay band.
Table 2 provides a breakdown of costs in relation to the reversal of outstanding FEMPI measures. As the dates by which these payments must be made are not fixed, but dependent on the timeframes outlined in the Act and detailed as follows, it is not possible to apportion these costs by year.
Chapter 5 of the Public Service Pay and Pensions Act 2017 outlines that for public servants who have not achieved full restoration by October 2020 (i.e. the date of the last PSSA increase), restoration of outstanding FEMPI amounts must be completed by way of Ministerial order. This Order must be made on the following dates:
For those with a post-PSSA salary of under €150,000:
- Covered public servants: a date after 1 October 2020 but before 1 July 2021.
- Non-covered public servants: on 1 July 2021.
For those with a post-PSSA salary in excess of €150,000:
- Covered public servants: a date after 1 October 2020 but before 1 July 2022.
- Non-covered public servants: a date after 1 July 2021 but before 1 July 2022.
Under Section 21 of the Act these restoration measures do not apply to certain officeholders including Cabinet members and the Attorney General.
