asked the Minister for Lands when details of the proposed new pension scheme will be circulated to forestry workers.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Forestry Workers' Pension Scheme.
22.
(Cavan): A pension scheme for non-established State employees, including forestry workers, has been in operation since 1st January, 1970. Forestry workers seeking further information on the scheme may consult their local forester who will be pleased to explain the outline of the scheme or to have particular problems which may arise in individual cases examined in detail.
May I ask if people who are already on pension will be covered by the proposed new scheme?
(Cavan): That point is not raised in the question but I shall ask my Department to communicate with the Deputy on the matter.
