Plan to maximise Croke Park savings

Trade union leaders and state agency managers will be presented with further proposals to squeeze the maximum savings from the Croke Park deal tomorrow.

Taoiseach Enda Kenny has agreed to convene the Croke Park implementation body, where unions and managers will be presented with further plans to reduce the public sector pay bill.

Public Expenditure Minister Brendan Howlin and Mr Kenny have met ministers with their latest department plans in recent weeks.
