Public sector seeks accelerated pay restoration

Ahead of talks around a new pay deal, the Association of Higher Civil and Public Servants (AHCPS) have said their members were cut more than other grades during the recession and pay must now be fully restored.

Negotiations around a successor to the Lansdowne Road Agreement are due to begin in the coming weeks after the Public Sector Pay Commission publishes its report. Minister For Public Expenditure and Reform Paschal Donohoe has yet to receive the report from the Commission but it is expected to be on his desk in the coming days.
