Vol. 475 No. 6
97 Mr. Cowen asked the Minister for Health the total amount paid to each hospital consultant over the past six years. [5578/97]
Limerick East): Details of the rates of remuneration applying to hospital consultants employed in the public health service holding the consultants' common contract from 1 June 1991 to date are set out on the following tabular statement. In addition to the allowances set out on the tabular statement an additional earmarked fund of £0.5 million a year has been distributed among health service employers for disbursement to consultants with particularly onerous levels of emergency duty.
Information on the precise amounts paid in salary and allowances by public health service employers to individual hospital consultants are not available in my Department as these are matters between individual hospital consultants and their employers, having regard inter alia to the type of consultant post held and the level of call out etc.
