As outlined in my response to the Deputy to PQ no. 33 for answer on 6 March 2024, redundancy or severance payments in the Civil Service generally arise with respect to specific categories of employees, as determined by the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform (DPENDR) and approved by Government. Decisions in respect of same are made by the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform.
I can confirm to the Deputy that my Department has not made any payments in respect of severance or redundancy in the specific range requested (i.e. between €100,000 and €200,000) in the time periods requested.
The information requested in relation to the agencies under the aegis of my Department is an operational matter for each agency. The Department will request the relevant bodies to reply directly to the Deputy with the information requested in respect of their organisations.
