Deputy Michael Fitzmaurice asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality the number of retired public sector employees in her Department, including bodies under its aegis, who are in receipt of a public sector pension and have been re-employed either part-time or full-time, temporary or otherwise, by the public sector; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by my Department that based on the information currently available at this time, there are 20 retired public servants in receipt of a public sector pension employed in my Department. These figures include bodies under the aegis of my Department with the exception of An Garda Síochána. I have asked An Garda Síochána to provide the information directly to the Deputy as soon as it is available. These figures do not include members of State Boards who are appointed following a process run by the Public Appointments Service. Relevant data for previous years are provided in the Appropriation Accounts.
