The operation of the Bord na Móna General Employees Superannuation Scheme (GESS) is a matter for the Trustees of the GESS and the Board of Bord na Móna, and not one in which I have a direct function.

I have been advised by Bord na Móna that the Trustees of the GESS are in consultation with Bord na Móna, the Bord na Móna Group of Unions and GESS members regarding a framework for discussions to resolve issues surrounding the current deficit on the GESS. It is hoped that a successful conclusion can be arrived at through this dialogue.
