Written answers

Since 2018, my Department has not sanctioned or paid any “exit packages”  separate from,  or in addition to statutory severances. My Department paid out severance payments to Ministerial Personal Staff at the dissolution of the Dáil under the terms laid out by the Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform and has paid redundancies in accordance with statutory entitlements under the Redundancy Payments Acts 1967-2014. 

I trust this information is of use to the Deputy.
