IMO urges no vote to Croke Park II

The Irish Medical Organisation has become the latest public service representative body to recommend its members reject the terms of Croke Park II.

Following a meeting of the executive council of the doctors’ union, it also said it backed the decision by its negotiators to withdraw early from talks between unions and management on a new deal.

The union confirmed it would ballot members but added: “The council agreed unanimously to recommend that members would vote against the proposals.”
