Top civil servants may get €105k pay rises

The country’s highest-paid public servants, some earning €200,000 to €350,000, are underpaid by up to 30% and should no longer be subject to pay caps, according to a Department of Public Expenditure report.
In cash terms, were that cap to be bridged, it would mean pay rises of €60,000 to €105,000 for top secretaries-general and heads of semi-state bodies.
