Written answers

Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform

My officials have been involved in discussions with the Houses of the Oireachtas Commission in relation to complex proposals for revised pay terms for staff serving in the grade of Secretarial Assistant. The discussions are based on a claim from SIPTU which represents staff working under the Scheme for Secretarial Assistance.

My officials will continue to engage with the Commission on these issues.
