I propose to take Questions Nos. 340 and 341 together.

The following table identifies the number of persons employed in my Department and its offices, broken down by annual remuneration including salary, pension and benefits at 31 December 2011 as requested by the Deputy. There are no staff with remuneration of more than €200,000.

The details of remuneration, pensions and benefits of staff in the Agencies under the remit of my Department, is a day to day matter for the respective agencies. I have asked the Agencies to respond directly to the Deputy concerned.

*This figure comprises the Secretary General of my Department, the Chairman of the Labour Court, the Chief Executive of Labour Relations Commission and one of the Deputy Chairmen of the Labour Court.
