Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Matters relating to the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform: Discussion

Suppressing grades or elongating scales are very difficult industrial relations, IR, challenges to get agreement upon. My own view is the systems are too hierarchical.
