316. To ask the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform if there are any plans to restore the daily rate paid for interview work to the pre-FEMPI rates given that all other civil service salaries and payments that have been restored; if there is a reason that a former civil servant working as a consultant on interview boards for the PAS earns a rate of €130 per day when other consultants doing the same work earn a rate of €150 per day; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The following rates are payable to former civil and public servants who serve on Interview/Selection Boards in the Public Appointments Service and throughout the civil and public service.

Retired Civil Servants (on pension):

Secretary General €377
Deputy Secretary €295
Assistant Secretary €200
Principal €150
Assistant Principal €130

Former civil and public servants who serve on Interview/Selection Boards provide a valuable service in supporting selection processes. The need to review the current rates will be assessed in the context of emerging expenditure trends and recruitment needs across the public service.
