My Department and the Offices under its aegis have no employees currently suspended on full pay pending disciplinary investigations.

In respect of the agencies that come within my remit, they are statutorily independent in their functions and this is an operational matter for them. I have, therefore, referred the Deputy's question to the agencies for direct reply.
