The Minister for Public Expenditure & Reform is providing the information on the numbers of retired civil servants in receipt of the various ranges of pension, as sought by the Deputy.

The parallel information in respect of the State Bodies under the aegis of my Department is a matter for the Bodies themselves.

My Department is responsible for the payment of pensions to a small number of former employees of bodies under the aegis of this Department which are no longer in operation. The position in respect of these pensions is set out in the attached Appendix.
