PQ 204
266 Deputy Paul Gogarty asked the Minister for Finance the rationale for reversing the pay cuts of senior civil servants who will now take much less of a wage cut than lower paid civil servants; the reason the final pensions should not be similarly affected irrespective of bonus cuts, like those struggling to make a living at the lower end; if his attention has been drawn to the anger amongst the general public as a result of harsh but necessary measures to reduce our growing deficit, but who feel additionally discriminated against as a result of this measure; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
