Stephen Donnelly (FF), Wicklow

It is expensive but the funding has been allocated. As we were discussing, the systems will become operational in the new year, which is important.
Let me refer to the changes. For a staff nurse on point 4, the gross salary last year, excluding the premium and overtime, was €35,130. With the cost-of-living increase and the Building Momentum increase, that is now €36,684. Regarding the cost-of-living increase, the 3% that will be paid before Christmas, the arrears due to the nurse is €966, with a further €167 to be paid in February. That will be the 1%. For a clinical nurse manager on point 6, the salary went from €56,745 to €60,968. The sectoral bargaining arrears is €1,820, paid in December. The 3% cost-of-living element is €1,611, paid in December. The Building Momentum payment in February will be a further €201.
