Ceist:

153 Deputy Michael McGrath asked the Minister for Social Protection if she will list the number of positions under her control but outside of the civil service which will be affected by new salary caps; the specific cuts involved and any impact identified on the ability to recruit or to retain specific positions in the next 12 months. [17985/11]

Minister for Social Protection (Deputy Joan Burton)

I wish to confirm that none of the positions, in the bodies under the aegis of my Department, are at a salary level of €200,000 or above, and, therefore in this instance, voluntary salary waivers and future reduced starting salary levels would not apply to those positions.
