Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Deputy Adams can get the details of all of the changes that have been made in regard to pay and pensions for higher-paid public servants. As I said already and repeat again, for the higher ranks the pay reductions range from between 3% and 30%. In the case of position I occupy, the salary is 40% lower than it was for the person who occupied it before me.
