The following table sets out the number of increments paid to the staff in my Department for the years 2008-2015:

YEAR Number of Increments
2008 1706
2009 1685
2010 1578
2011 1246
2012 1086
2013 958
2014 694
Jan-Apr 2015 Inclusive 223

The awarding of an increment is dependent on satisfactory performance by the staff member.

It is not feasible to provide the costs for each year in the time frame available, however the information will be provided directly to the Deputy as soon as possible.
