Plans for the holding of a Referendum on the pay of judges are well advanced. The Referendum will, it is intended, be held in conjunction with the Presidential Election. Following Government approval of the text of the necessary Amendment of the Constitution Bill it will be published on a date that is consistent with the requirements of the Referendum Act 1994 in relation to an order specifying the polling day.
