Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 20 March 2024
560. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media the number of exit and-or severance and-or redundancy packages granted by her Department, bodies under her aegis and bodies she funds in full or in part, of €100,000 and above but less that €200,000, by the amount and by each body, in each of the years 2019 to 2023 and to date in 2024. [12359/24]
View answerMy Department in its current configuration was established in September 2020 and the reply relates to the period from that date.
There were no severance or redundancy payments of €100,000 and above but less than €200,000 made over that period in respect of my Department.
For the bodies under the aegis of my Department, this is an operational matter for each body. It should be noted that while my Department provides grant assistance to many organisations and programmes across the Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport & Media sectors, we do not have any operational role in those organisations.
