The Haddington Road Agreement (HRA), which came into force on 1 July 2013, included a number of measures including pay reductions for those public servants on annual salaries of €65,000 or more under the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest Act, 2013. These measures provided for a reduction of the public service pay and pensions bill by €1 billion by 2016. It is a three year Agreement covering the period to end June 2016 and forms the basis for current public service pay policy over that period.
