Deputy Michael Creed asked the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform with the regard to the establishment of a Senior Posts Renumeration Committee if he would ensure that a public interest appointee is a member of the committee; if he will publish the terms of reference for this committee; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraOn 27 June Government agreed to progress the establishment of the Senior Posts Remuneration Committee on a statutory basis, in line with the recommendations of the Report of the Independent Review Panel on senior public service recruitment and pay determination processes. This Committee, on its establishment, will advise on remuneration arrangements for senior posts in the public service and CEOs of Commercial State Bodies. Officials in my Department are now progressing the necessary legislation to establish the Senior Posts Remuneration Committee on a statutory basis. In this regard, I am considering, with my officials, a range of issues related to the establishment of this Committee, including its terms of reference and membership, and I will make proposals to Government on these matters in due course.
