The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the following table.
- | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | 2012 | 2013 | 2014 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
No. of Staff in receipt of Increment | 225 | 189 | 171 | 158 | 121 | 113 | 65 |
Average number of staff employed in Dept. | 323 | 310 | 289 | 282 | 265 | 268 | 272 (staff numbers as at 31/5/14) |
Increments are paid in line with the approved rates of pay at the time as outlined on the website of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. Since 1 July 2013 incremental progression is being applied in line with the terms of the Haddington Road Agreement. The payment of increments is subject to satisfactory performance under the Performance Management Development System (PMDS).
The configuration of the payroll system does not allow for the extraction of the annual cost of increments.
