I propose to take Questions Nos. 101 and 102 together. I have appointed Anne Byrne and Ronan O'Brien as special advisors. The salary for both special advisors has been €83,337 and €114,000 respectively per annum since their appointment. No salary increases have been requested in respect of either appointment.
