As the Deputy will be aware the pension arrangements for the staff of Permanent TSB are a matter for the management of that company and for the trustees of the relevant pension schemes. It would not be appropriate for me to comment on the implications for an individual arising out of any proposed restructuring by Permanent TSB of its defined benefit pension schemes. I understand that a proposal by the company to the trustees in relation to the defined benefit pension schemes is in the process of referral to the Labour Court for discussion with interested parties.
