As I have previously advised the House, a retired schoolteacher works as a Special Adviser in my Department, whose salary, following abatement, is €38,216 per annum.
I am also advised that Údarás na Gaeltachta has engaged two retired officers on short- term contracts:
- one as interim CEO on a 4-month contract expiring on 30th April 2012 at a cost of €20,916; and
- one as a solicitor on a six-month contract expiring on 31st August 2012 at a cost of €23,663.
The abatement principle has been applied in both cases.
