Across the Civil and Public Service, there are many grades and job descriptions specific to the sector or to the particular Department or public body. I would like to draw the Deputy's attention to the booklet entitled 'Analysis of Exchequer Pay and Pensions Bill 2005-2010' published by my Department in June, 2010 and available on my Department's website. Contained in this booklet is the cost to the Exchequer in pay and pensions in all sectors across the Public Service along with associated numbers for each sector. A copy of this booklet has been forwarded to the Deputy. My direct area of responsibility is the Civil Service. The current rates of pay in the Civil Service for general service grades and grades common to two or more Departments are shown in Circular 28/2009 which is available on my Department's website. Questions about the pay of individual grades in other areas of the Public Service should be addressed to the appropriate Minister.
