I propose to take Questions Nos. 120 and 121 together.

The information sought by the Deputy is set out in the table.

Under the provisions of the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest Act 2015 (FEMPI), for those on salaries in excess of €110,000, the salary reductions imposed under FEMPI will be restored in three equal phases on 1 April 2017, 1 April, 2018 and 1 April, 2019. I understand that a circular setting out the revised salary rates applicable from 1 April 2017 to general Civil Service grades, including Secretaries General and Assistant Secretaries is currently in preparation and will be issued by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform in due course.
