As the Deputy will be aware the Incentivised Scheme of Early Retirement and the Special Civil Service Incentive Career Break Scheme were introduced as once-off measures that were included in the Supplementary Budget on 7 April 2009. Following implementation these measures were extended to staff in different areas in the public service. There is no current proposal to extend either of the schemes.
