I propose to take Questions Nos. 135 and 136 together.
The pay of Officers and Enlisted Personnel of the Permanent Defence Force is provided for in Subhead A.3 of Vote 36 – Defence. The following table sets out the budget allocations for this subhead for the years 2015 to 2018.
A.3 Permanent Defence Force: Pay | 2015 | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 |
---|---|---|---|---|
Officers (incl Army Nursing Service) | €83.2m | €83.2m | €82.7m | €83.7m |
Enlisted Personnel | €299.3m | €297.9m | €299.5m | €307.5m |
Social Welfare – Employer’s Contributions | €35.0m | €35.0m | €35.0m | €37.0m |
The breakdown of the 2019 budget allocation has not yet been finalised.
