None of the staff of my Department who had taken the early retirement package or retired due to reaching the retirement age in each year since 2005 have been or are re-employed by my Department.
However, the following two former staff members are re-engaged by my Department on the following basis:
- A former Assistant Secretary in this Department is serving on the NERA Advisory Board. The only payments made for participation on the Advisory Board are Travel and Subsistence payments in accordance with the Department of Finance rates for civil servants.
- A former Principal Officer is the Irish Government representative and Deputy Chair of the Board of the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) based in Helsinki, Finland. This individual is engaged as an expert and is paid on a fee per day basis in respect of each Board meeting that he attends and also for attending meetings of the Board Sub-Committee which he chairs.
