The following are details of the Special Advisers appointed by me since I took up duty as Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs on 9 March 2011. The salaries attaching to the first two listed posts are commensurate with the responsibilities the post holders carry in the Office of the Tánaiste. The salary for Ms Jean O'Mahony, which is within the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform guidelines relating to Special Advisers, includes a scale increment awarded on 10 March 2012 in line with those guidelines. No other pay increases have been sought or awarded since the original appointments.

Mark Garrett | Chief Adviser - Office of the Tánaiste | €168,000 |
Colm O'Reardon | Economic Adviser - Office of the Tánaiste | €155,000 |
Jean O'Mahony | Special Adviser - Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade | €83,337 |
