Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 25 October 2011
469 Deputy Mary Lou McDonald asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if all non-commercial State agency employees under his Department’s aegis are paid directly from the Exchequer. [30881/11]
Amharc ar fhreagraMost non-commercial State Bodies under the aegis of my Department receive direct funding from my Department. This funding is used to cover a wide variety of activities depending on the nature and remit of the body. It also covers the admin and salary costs of the organisation. The National Milk Agency is funded by a levy on the Dairy industry and does not receive any finance.
