The Department has made an offer to the group representing the workers. The issue that will be decided by the High Court in the autumn is how much or what percentage of their pension they will get ultimately. The Department is actively engaged with the people who represent them. Am I correct that an offer has been made by the State to provide a particular level of payment?
