TD urges clarity on €308m Croke Park saving

The head of the body overseeing co-operation with the Croke Park pay deal has agreed to look again at ways to verify the reported non-pay savings of €308m a year in the public service.

It was the figure reported last June as money saved, in addition to an estimated €289m reduction in the public pay bill, in the first year of the agreement between the Government and public service unions.
