I propose to take Questions Nos. 187 and 188 together.

The tables below detail the number of civil servants and other staff employed in my private and constituency offices and the grade and annual salary of each staff member. Annual salary costs identified in the tables do not include Employers PRSI or additional pension payments.

As expenses are normally claimed in arrears, my Department is not in a position to provide the information in respect of the year ending 31 December 2007 until early 2008. However, expenses amounting to €15,954.60 in respect of travel and subsistence were paid to staff working in my private office for the financial year ended 31 December 2006. No expenses in respect of travel and subsistence were paid to staff working in my constituency office for the same time period.
