Brian Hayes

Ceist:

1482 Deputy Brian Hayes asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if he could set out in respect of each local authority in the country the percentage of their current expenditure that relates to staff pay and pensions as a percentage of the total budget in their respective areas; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The information requested is set out in the following table:
