[Paul Kiely, former chief executive of the Central Remedial Clinic whose €200,000 pension pay off was revealed at the Public Accounts Committee meeting today followed by CRC chairman Jim Jim Nugent]
Chairman of the CRC Jim Nugent told the committee that the organisation was contractually bound to pay salaries that were in excess of HSE levels. He said the CRC had presented these arrangements at a meeting in July 2009. David Martin, a director who was at that meeting with another former CEO, Des Peelo, said the HSE agreed that the CRC was to pay the shortfall to those with “legacy contracts”, who had been receiving pay in excess of HSE levels.
