I can confirm that no remuneration, stipend, expense facility, financial facility or similar payment is being made from the Exchequer by my Department, beyond any accrued pension entitlements, to any senior civil servant who has retired from the Department of Defence in the past five years. It was not possible to gather the detailed information sought by the Deputy in respect of the Defence Forces in the time available. My Department is currently seeking to compile the relevant data and I will provide the information directly to the Deputy once it comes to hand.
