Payment of salaries to staff of my Department is made in line with pay scales approved by the Department for Public Expenditure and Reform. If a minimum payment of €11.45 an hour were introduced, the additional costs are estimated to be in the region of €13,170 (not including Employer’s PRSI). Material in respect of bodies under the aegis of my Department is a matter for the bodies concerned and is not available in my Department.
