Question 134: To ask the Minister for Communications; Energy and Natural Resources if his attention has been drawn to whether performance bonuses have been paid to the Chief Executive and senior management at the ESB in respect of 2010; if so, if he will provide the relevant details; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I wrote to the Chairpersons of each of the commercial Semi State bodies under my aegis last month stating my view that payments of Performance Related Bonuses to CEOs should cease immediately. It is the case that the Chief Executive of ESB had already confirmed that he would forgo all potential bonus payments for the remainder of his contract.

The payment of salaries and performance bonuses to senior management at ESB is an operational matter for the Board and Management of ESB.

I wrote to the Chairpersons of each of the commercial Semi State bodies under my aegis last month stating my view that payments of Performance Related Bonuses to CEOs should cease immediately. The Chairman has confirmed that the Chief Executive of An Post has voluntarily waived his right to payment under the Performance Related Incentive Payment Scheme since 2008.

The payment of salaries and performance bonuses to senior management at An Post is an operational matter for the Board and Management of An Post.
