I wish to advise the Deputy that officials in my Department have been actively engaging with relevant stakeholders in relation to the request from The Bar of Ireland for restoration of fees to criminal defence barristers. There has been ongoing correspondence and engagement in respect of this request.

The matter is under consideration and will be examined further in the context of wider public pay policy and expenditure implications.
