The pension-related deduction applies to those bodies defined as a 'public service body' in the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest Act 2009. The bodies to which the definition of 'public service body' does not apply are set out in the Schedule to that Act and are listed hereunder. The pension-related deduction does not apply to these organisations. I regret I do not have immediately to hand the details sought by the Deputy in relation to the number of employees working for each body or the associated payroll costs. The organisations concerned are: 1. Any body corporate established by Act of Parliament before 6 December 1922 that, upon its establishment, was of a commercial character 2.
