Written Answers - Pension Payments.

Michael Joe Cosgrave

Ceist:

59 Mr. Cosgrave asked the Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources if his attention has been drawn to the delay in paying arrears of pension increases due to former employees of Dun Laoghaire Harbour Works, which also effects lump sum payments; and if he will have investigations made in order that the arrears due are paid without delay and are kept up to date in the future. [16544/97]

Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources (Dr. Woods)

All general pay round increases have been applied to the pensions of former employees of Dún Laoghaire Harbour Works and there are no outstanding matters in this regard. If, however, any pensioner has specific queries personnel division of my Department will be glad to address them.
