Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 24 April 2012
506 Deputy Emmet Stagg asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the number and grades of civil servants who have been re-employed by his Department having taken the early retirement package or retired due to reaching the retirement age in each year since 2005. [20222/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraRetired former civil servants are engaged from time to time by my Department in areas where specific expertise is required for a short fixed period and they provide a level of knowledge, experience and background compatible with such requirements.
The abatement principle, which ensures that the fee paid plus pension does not exceed the rate of pay the pensioner would receive if he/she had continued service in their former post, applies to all such payments made. The tasks carried out include time bound tasks or projects such as membership of expert groups, occasional service on interview boards, value for money reviews and process audits.
The information requested for the years since 2005 is set out in the following table:
