Trade unions have accused the Government of "dilly-dallying" by delaying rewards that are expected to be given to health workers.

The warning follows a Labour Court recommendation earlier this week for the HSE to engage with unions to discuss increased compensation and benefits for health workers who faced increased risks on the frontline of the pandemic.
