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: Pay2015201620172018
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.
