I propose to take Questions Nos. 151 and 154 together.

The Public Service Pay Commission has been tasked with providing an initial report to Government on public service remuneration in the context of the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest Acts 2009 – 2015. The findings of the Commission will contribute to and inform Government's considerations in relation to Public Service remuneration and will inform Public Service employers in negotiations with staff interests on an extension to the Lansdowne Road Agreement. The Commission is expected to report shortly and following consideration by Government, the report will be published.
