Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 26 February 2013
593. Deputy Thomas Pringle asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will provide details of the payment of bonuses or other performance related payments and or allowances made to the staff of agencies under the aegis of his Department with a yearly breakdown from 2008 outlining the overall amount paid in each year period and the number of staff that received such payments and or allowances. [10158/13]
Amharc ar fhreagra594. Deputy Thomas Pringle asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will provide details of payments made to the CEO or equivalent of all agencies under the aegis of his Department including details of any bonuses, pension entitlements or any other remuneration paid to him or her in 2012. [10175/13]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 593 and 594 together.
Queries on bonuses, other performance related payments and allowances to staff in the State Bodies should be directed to the State Bodies themselves.
The details of the salaries of the Chief Executive Officers of the twelve State Bodies operating under the aegis of my Department for 2012 are outlined in the table below. In relation to two Commercial State Bodies – Coillte and the Irish National Stud - the salaries of the Chief Executive Officers are paid from the companies own resources as they do not receive funding from my Department. No bonuses were paid to Chief Executives of State Bodies under the aegis of this Department in 2012.
