Prison officers plan work stoppage
Prison officers at Castlerea Prison in Co Roscommon are expected to engage in a one-hour work stoppage later this afternoon as part of a long-running dispute with prison management.
The Prison Officers' Association has complained that management is not doing enough to address staff concerns about bullying and harassment at the jail.
The Association has called for an independent assessment of the situation and has sought the involvement of a civil service mediator.
