The following are details of the Special Advisers appointed by me since I took up duty as Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade on 9 March 2011 whose salaries exceed the first point of the Principal Officer standard scale. The salaries attaching to the first two listed posts are commensurate with the responsibilities the post holders carry in the Office of the Tánaiste. The salary of the third officer includes a scale increment awarded on 10 March 2012 in line with Department of Public Expenditure and Reform guidelines relating to the appointment of special advisers. No other pay increases have been sought or awarded since the original appointments.

Colm O'Reardon | Economic Adviser - Office of the Tánaiste | €155,000 |
Jean O'Mahony | Special Adviser - Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade | €83,337 |
