I propose to take Questions Nos. 183 and 184 together.

The estimated costs of incremental pay increases together with the estimated full year impact of the 2.5% pay increase and the proposed 3.5% pay increase are set out in the following tables. These estimates are based on existing personnel numbers and do not reflect any changes in numbers or profile of staff that might take place in the future. Some of the factors that can influence this are resignations, career breaks, retirements and decentralisation.
