The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the accompanying table:
Office | September 2011 | September 2012 |
|---|---|---|
| Taoiseach's Private Office | €1,065,227 | €1,080,286 |
| Taoiseach's Constituency Office | €281,422 | €289,151 |
| Government Chief Whip's Private Office | €281,267 | €275,134 |
| Government Chief Whip's Constituency Office | €133,180 | €136,326 |
| Minister of State for European Affairs's Private Office | €104,406 | €104,243 |
Where increases in salary costs in 2012 over 2011 are shown it is due to incremental progression in accordance with standard civil service procedures. Where decreases occurred it is due to staff transfers where the incoming staff are on lower points of the incremental scale than the outgoing staff.
