There are a number of questions to be addressed. There are two types of deductions and I referred to one in my answer to Deputy McDonald on FEMPI legislation and pension payments. The reduction Deputy Fleming refers to, relating to pensions of over €32,500, was introduced in the most recent FEMPI legislation and sought to mirror the reduction relating to €65,000 and people still working. I have answered questions on this and can get the details, though it is not relevant to this Vote. If it is a matter of interest I will send the information to the Deputy.
