Over 40,000 retired HSE staff have found themselves without increases in their pensions. Those staff include retired nurses, porters, social workers and many others. Pension increases have been approved since 2017 but problems updating payroll systems within the HSE have meant people are not getting their moneys. This is at a time when the cost of living is becoming more and more difficult for people. Individuals had been pursuing the HSE on this matter on a case-by-case basis. The HSE was supposed to catch up on this earlier this year. Is there any indication as to when the HSE will catch up with all of these pensions to ensure people are getting the pensions to which they entitled, including those increases?
