The following are details of the advisers appointed by me in my capacity as Minister of State with Responsibility for Defence.

Special AdviserJohn Coughlan6 May 2016 to date€84,973 - €104,507
Press AdviserClare Mungovan18 May 2016 - 7 January 2018€84,973 - €104,507

Neither was employed in a Government Department immediately prior to their appointment as my advisers.

These are the only advisers appointed by me in the period since 6 May 2016.

I expect to appoint a replacement press adviser in the near future.
