I propose to take Questions Nos. 615 and 616 together.

The information requested pertaining to my Department is in the table. This excludes contract terminations and/or resignations arising from Cabinet changes. Costs arising from early retirements, termination of contracts and resignations of staff in my Department is borne by the Exchequer through the Department of Finance. The information requested pertaining to the agencies is a matter for each agency itself.
