I propose to take Questions Nos. 106 and 107 together.
The table that follows this reply gives details of the Special Advisers employed at my Department and their respective salaries, which have remained constant since the date of their appointment. The total salary cost for Special Advisers in 2012 was approximately €198,548, including the employer's P.R.S.I. contribution. While there are ministerial staff at my office and the Minister of State's office at the grades of Personel Secretary and Personal Assistant, none of their salaries exceeds the Principal Officer salary scale.
Appointee | Position | Current Salary |
---|---|---|
John Walshe | Special Adviser | €92,672 |
Deirdre Grant | Special Adviser | €86,604 |
