Frances Fitzgerald (Dublin Mid West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The Labour Court recommendation addressed the issue of access to the Workplace Relations Commission for gardaí and it suggested a timetable in which it would be completed during 2017. I have referred this issue to the Horgan review. I asked Mr. Horgan and the associations to work together to discuss what they would like to see in the legislation and the best way to approach it. I expect to get the report in December but the timetable remains. It will be a helpful contribution to the legislation. There is no intention at present to extend it to the Defence Forces.
