Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Role and Operation of the Health and Safety Authority: Discussion

Dr. Kevin De Barra:

Our annual budget from Exchequer funding is just over €30 million. We also have our own resource income, which is primarily from the accreditation service. Collectively, the annual budget is €34 million. Roughly two thirds of that is spent on pay-related costs and one third is spent on the running of the organisation’s expenses.
