Minister for Education and Skills (Deputy Ruairí Quinn)

There are three categories of ETBs for the purposes of pay scales for Chief Executives. Based on the mid point of these scales, my Department estimates that the gross annual saving to the Exchequer, were salaries for Chief Executives to be reduced by 10%, is of the order of €173,000.
