People talk about the break clause in paragraph 1.28 on page 10 of the Croke Park agreement. They talk about how the Government might want to initiate it at some stage. The break clause states that "The implementation of this agreement is subject to no currently unforeseen budgetary deterioration." From my reading of that, it looks as though the break clause can only be implemented by the Government side of this agreement. Only the Government can decide that the Croke Park agreement no longer applies.
