Staff costs, including salaries and pension contributions for the ICMSA’s 12 staff, amounted to just under €600,000 in 2019, which was up 3% on the previous year. Expenses incurred by ICMSA members amounted to €400,000 for the year.
Overall, the ICMSA is in very strong financial health, with reserves of more than €4m on its balance sheet.
