Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 May 2022
69. Deputy John Lahart asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform when a person (details supplied) will receive their full pension entitlements from his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25036/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy understanding is that this matter relates to pensions increase policy as it applies to former employees of the National Building Agency (NBA) and members of the NBA superannuation scheme. In that regard, the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage has sought assistance on this matter from officials in my Department.
The current position is that my officials sought detailed clarifications on the background to this issue from the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage in order to inform the detailed policy advice required. The Department of Public Expenditure and Reform recently received responses to most of these clarification requests and is reviewing the information.
This Department continues to engage with the NBA's parent Department to obtain the outstanding information necessary to resolve the policy advice request as soon as possible.
