Written answers

I propose to take Questions Nos. 91 to 93, inclusive, together.

In accordance with the Public Service Stability Agreement 2018-2020, the Government tasked the Public Service Pay Commission to conduct a comprehensive examination and analysis of underlying difficulties in recruitment and retention in those sectors and employment streams identified in the Commission's Report of May 2017. This includes the Defence Sector.

The Minister for Finance and Public Expenditure and Reform has indicated that he will be bringing the Report to Government shortly. The Government will give due consideration to the findings and recommendations.

I have engaged with my officials regarding the report pending its approval by Government.
