The cuts in Public Sector pay that were introduced under FEMPI legislation are being restored on a phased basis to all grades who are officers of my Department in accordance with instructions from the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (DPER). This restoration is centrally negotiated and decided by DPER. There is no distinction in pay rates between Officers of this Department who entered the service pre or post 2011.

I have asked the HSE and NCSSB's to respond directly to the Deputy regarding their agencies.
