Vol. 398 No. 1

Written Answers. - Re-engagement of Former State Employees.

Peter Barry

Question:

130 Mr. Barry asked the Minister for Labour if, since 1989, any former State employees have been engaged, either permanently or on contract, by his Department; and if so, if he will give (i) their names, (ii) the terms of their employment or contract, (iii) the salary being paid to them and (iv) the pension, if any, payable to them from the State.

In accordance with section 10 (4) of the Industrial Relations Act, 1946, and on foot of the nomination of the Federation of Irish Employers, I appointed a former civil servant to be a member of the Labour Court with effect from 14 July 1989. His term of office expires on 22 June 1992. He was nominated on his retirement from the Civil Service. The terms and conditions of his appointment are generally the same as those of other members of the Labour Court.

I have no information available to me on the pension payable to him on his retirement from the Civil Service. I can confirm, however, that his appointment was made subject to the application of pension abatement terms of the Superannuation Pensions (Abatement) Act in respect of his Civil Service pension which is payable by the Paymaster General.

His Labour Court salary for the year ended 31 December 1989 amounted to £12,222.93.
