In respect of the announcement yesterday to target over 80 public service allowances, what savings will be achieved by the end of this year or into next year? Was a business case made for the payment of those allowances by the various Departments?
Considering there are 80 and the Minister has said it is not an exhaustive list, does he believe there are many more allowances in that area that can be reviewed? When will they be reviewed?
