Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 12 July 2018
182. Deputy Billy Kelleher asked the Minister for Education and Skills the cost of implementing a living wage of €11.90 for all employees directly employed and or in agencies funded by his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [32221/18]
View answerAll staff presently engaged at my Department, including Services Officers and Cleaners, are on an incremental pay scale and are in receipt of salaries which exceed the rate mentioned by the Deputy.
My Department does not hold data centrally in relation to payroll for the bodies under its aegis. Therefore, officials at my Department will request the information and forward it to the Deputy in due course.
