As Minister for Business, Enterprise and Innovation, I have employed the services of two Special Advisers, details of whom are available through the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform website, but which are set out as follows for the Deputy’s ease of reference.
| Name | Role | Salary |
|---|---|---|
| Ms Lucy Moylan | Special Adviser (Press) | PO Standard Scale |
| Mr Pauric Mc Phillips | Special Adviser (Policy) | PO Standard Scale |
The pay scale for Special Advisers is the Standard Principal Officer pay scale of which the current starting point is €87,325 with a maximum point of €107,399.
This Department does not employ special advisors for the two Ministers of State.
NB. Due to the fact that Minister Halligan’s responsibilities span two departments (this Department and the Department of Education and skills), the Special Adviser to John Halligan is employed by the Department of Education and Skills.
