Figures relating to the actual remuneration paid to fire fighters across every local authority are not available in my Department; however, the current applicable salary scales are contained in the tables below. The last wage increase due under the national partnership agreement, Towards 2016, was paid with effect from 1 September 2008. Any further increases are a matter for future determination.
