The following is TheJournal.ie‘s comprehensive list of the 35 beaten Fianna Fáil TDs, and the six Green Party TDs, and the amounts that they will receive in respect of their time as deputies and ministers.
The list does not include the outgoing Fianna Fáil TDs who did not run in the election – like, for example, former Taoisigh Bertie Ahern and Brian Cowen.
Notes:
- All totals listed are pre-tax; tax is payable on all earnings, with the exception of the part of the first-year payment accounting for the lump sum of a parliamentary pension. This equates to three years’ worth of their annual pension. Most sums are also subject to pension levies.
- TDs do not receive parliamentary pensions until they turn 50, though they can accept reduced pensions at 45.
- Ministerial pensions are not paid to retirees under 50 – or until they turn 65, in the case of defeated TDs who first took ministerial office after 2004.
