I propose to take Questions Nos. 506, 526 and 527 together.

The numbers of persons in receipt of salaries in excess of €100,000 in local authorities (at 30 June 2011) on a whole time equivalent basis (WTE) was two hundred and nineteen. Information regarding potential cost savings which could arise if these salaries were reduced is not available in my Department.
