View answerThe payment of monies owed continues to be a priority for the NSSO. To date the NSSO has reached agreement with all current Ministers and Ministers of State, and the majority of former Ministers impacted by this review. Engagement is ongoing with those not yet in a payment plan to regularise pension/ASC contributions as required. The NSSO has issued further correspondence to those individuals this month. The NSSO is fully committed to ensuring that all monies owed to the State are fully recouped and will continue to follow-up with impacted individuals to finalise payment plans.
