234.

In response to the Deputy’s question, the following table sets out the information sought as it relates to my Department and the bodies under its aegis.

Detailed costings in other sectors of the public service would require collation and estimation on an individual sector level, based on detailed data on the position of staff on each salary scale across the public service and details of the standard working hours per week for each individual grade.  This detailed data is only available to individual public service employers and the Deputy should submit a question to the relevant Ministers.
