General Scheme of the Industrial Relations (Provisions in Respect of Pension Entitlements of Retired Workers) Bill 2021: Discussion
Dr. John M. Hearne:
It was quite considerable. We did not get a pension. What we got through litigation was around €700 per year of service. In the redundancy package it was €1,000 per year of service but we were not given our options. The trustees were legally obliged to offer us our options but we did not get them, so there was no option. There was one option, which was to take it or leave it. We had no option but to take it.
