David Stanton (Cork East, Fine Gael)

The Minister said the full-year yield of €21 million on administrative efficiencies relates to payroll savings, and that will accumulate by 2014. Does that mean it will be €21 million in the full year, 2014, or will it accumulate between now and 2014? Could the Minister say what this actually means per annum between now and 2014?

Also, he talks about reduced personnel numbers. Is that primarily civilian personnel or does it refer to further reductions in military personnel?
