The details sought by the Deputy in relation to amounts awarded to organisations involved in social partnership is set out below:
Year | ICOS | Macra na Feirme |
2004 | €13,000 | €24,000 |
2005 | €13,000 | €24,400 |
2006 | €13,000 | €25,000 |
2007 | €13,000 | €25,000 |
2008 | €13,000 | €25,000 |
2009 | €13,000 | €22,500 |
2010 | Nil (to-date) | Nil (to-date) |
As well as the above, the branch secretary for the technical officers branch of IMPACT is seconded full time to IMPACT from my Department. IMPACT refunds the Department a proportion of the salary of the secondee and the remainder is paid by the Department.
The cost is based on the salary of the official involved and based on recent years is approximately €11,500.00 per annum.
The question of amounts awarded by agencies within the remit of my Department is an operational matter for the bodies themselves.
