The National Economic and Social Development Office (NESDO) is the only agency under the remit of my Department. I understand that no pensions, other that pensions being paid by the Paymaster General's Office, are being paid to any staff member who retired from the Office. Some staff who left the office when their contracts ended, as distinct from retiring from the office, may be in receipt of pensions from other sources, including private pension providers. However, my Department does not have access to information on the amount of pensions payable in such cases.
