The staff referred to would have been members of the Irish Airlines Superannuation Scheme (IASS). Pension entitlements for members, deferred members and pensioners of the IASS are a matter for the Trustees of the scheme to address. I understand the relevant parties are in discussions on this matter, which are being facilitated by the Labour Relations Commission. However, I have no function in this regard and my Department is not a party to these discussions.
