A draft deal to succeed the Lansdowne Road agreement was reached late last night.
The Public Service Pay Commission will soon deliver its report.
The Teachers’ Union of Ireland carried out a survey that indicates teachers’ morale at work is low because of the public pay dispute.
This year has already seen industrial unrest among doctors, nurses, teachers and gardaí.
Even if they’re given one they will refuse it, the party says.
The new government will be greeted by some very dissatisfied public servants on their first day in the Dáil.
GRA leadership have said that pay restoration is now its number one priority.
Rural members have spoken to TheJournal.ie about the frustration among their members.
The exact details are still being hammered out.
THE GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCED last night that Ireland will return to Level 3 restrictions (with some variations) for the month of December.
It follows six weeks of Level 5 restrictions, and the new guidelines will allow people to be a bit more social and for businesses to open ahead of Christmas, offering a sense of relief to many after a tough year.
But although Covid-19 cases have reduced in recent weeks, there are worries that going back to Level 3 now will inevitably lead to a rise in cases again and that we’ll face tighter restrictions again in the new year.
So today, we want to know: Do you agree with the Government’s decision to reduce Ireland’s Covid-19 restrictions to Level 3?
