I propose to take Questions Nos. 298 to 300, inclusive, together.

Staff from the Employment Supports and Community Services areas of FÁS were integrated with the Department of Social Protection on foot of a Government decision from 1 January 2012. The staff were designated at the equivalent civil service grade by reference to the rate of salary; there were no changes in those salary rates prior to or post the transfer.
