I am advised by NAMA that the total cost of pension provisions for NAMA staff in the 12 months ending December 2011 was €1.8m, as disclosed in note 36 of NAMA's 2011 audited financial statements. All NAMA staff are employed by the NTMA and the cost of pension provision represents the employer contributions made by the NTMA to the NTMA Pension Scheme on behalf of staff assigned to NAMA. NAMA estimates that employer contributions for the 12 months ending December 2012 will be €2.5m. All NAMA staff are subject to the public sector pension levy.
