Written answers

As provided for in the DPENDR Instructions to HR Managers on Ministerial Appointments, Severance and redundancy payments made by the Department of Health have been made to Ministerial personal staff who have not been appointed by way of secondment or leave of absence from other employments and who, therefore, have no job to which they are entitled to return to on cessation of office of the relevant Minister or Minister of State.

Details of payments and the numbers in receipt of payments in the relevant years are set out below:
