The information requested is set out in the following table.

YearNo. of staff departuresTotal annual salaries associated with departing staff
2013 – July to Dec inc7€531,000
201416€1,582,000
20151 €27,000
20163 €115,000


Figures for 2013 and 2014 are based on departures to date and include expected departures to end of 2014.

It is not possible to forecast future departures. The figures specified for 2015 and 2016 are based on those that reach compulsory retirement age.

The amounts provided in the table for 2013 and 2014 are for salaries of those who left the Department. This does not represent the savings accruing as many of these staff would have been replaced.
