The information requested by the Deputy is outlined in the table:

NamePostDate of AppointmentSalary on appointmentIncrease
Finbarr O'MalleySpecial Adviser to Minister28 March 2011€83,337 (2nd point Principal Officer Standard Scale)€86,604 (3rd point Principal Officer Standard Scale)
Simon NugentSpecial Adviser to Minister11 April 2011€97,200None

Mr O'Malley was awarded an increment on the Principal Officer Standard pay scale with effect from 28 March 2012, following one year's satisfactory performance in the post, in line with the terms of his appointment. As Mr Nugent's salary is not linked to a pay scale the awarding of increments does not apply in his case.
