Paul Kehoe (Wexford, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I am happy that the conciliation and arbitration process in place for the representative organisations is suitable and is working. There might be several issues that the Department and my office might not agree on with the representative organisations but the conciliation and arbitration process is open to them to deal with whatever issues they have.

I welcome that PDFORRA signed up as a full member of the Lansdowne Road agreement last week, which brings benefits to the members of the Permanent Defence Force. I have a person on the working group within the Department of Justice and Equality and am content that person will represent the views of RACO and PDFORRA.
