Ceist:

224. Deputy Eoghan Kenny asked the Taoiseach the basis on which the current levy arising from public expenditure overruns is being calculated and applied to his Department’s Vote; whether any categories of expenditure, including pay, pensions or staffing-related costs, are exempt from the levy within his Department; and if he will provide a breakdown of the areas against which the levy is being applied.

The Taoiseach

The Department of the Taoiseach is engaging actively and constructively with the Department of Public Expenditure, Infrastructure, Public Service Reform and Digitalisation (DPER) on application of the levy to the Department’s Vote allocation.

As this process is currently ongoing, it is not possible, at this time, to provide details of how the levy will be applied.
