Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 27 May 2020
106. Deputy Claire Kerrane asked the Minister for Education and Skills when a decision will be made on an application (details supplied) for a pension abatement waiver submitted in July 2019; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7522/20]
View answerI wish to advise the Deputy that Section 52 of the Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Act 2012 provides for pension abatement for employees in the public sector ; Section 52(4) provides for the waiver of such abatement at the discretion of the Minister of Public Expenditure & Reform.
I understand that the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform recently issued their decision on an application for a waiver of abatement in relation to the person concerned and advised his employer accordingly.
