151. To ask the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment if the amendments to the An Post Superannuation Scheme which his predecessor approved in March 2014 apply to ex-civil servants who were transferred to An Post from the former Department of Posts and Telegraphs on 1 January 1984 and are covered by the guarantee on their pension entitlements contained in Section 46(4) of the Postal and Telecommunications Act 1983; if the pensions of those ex-civil servants are linked to civil service grades; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Under section 46 of the Postal and Telecommunications Services Act 1983, the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications, with the concurrence of the Minister for Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform, approves any superannuation schemes submitted by An Post. The operation of the schemes is a matter between the management of An Post, staff representatives and the trustees of the schemes. I have asked An Post to correspond directly with the Deputy on this matter.
