Public Accounts Committee

Section 38 - Agencies Remuneration

12:20 pm

Mr. Jim Nugent:

I have two comments on the Deputy's point, or question. First of all, can I just take the generality of staff to whom, as the Deputy put it, no top-up was ever applied? I think the best way I can describe it is that the vast bulk of the staff were on salaries that were in line with their employment contracts and there was no requirement on us to reduce their employment contract entity or the amount of money given to them under their employment contract.
