PQ 255
299 Deputy Kevin Humphreys asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform his views that it is appropriate that two separate bands exist for Civil Service subsistence rates, often known as overnight allowances, on the basis of salary, and that band A is a higher rate of allowance for those earning higher salaries; if he will provide an explanation for the reason such discrimination on income exists; the amount that would be saved on the basis of 2011 expenditure if the bands were standardised to the lower band B; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
