I understand that the Deputy’s question relates to Multi Task Attendants.
The Haddington Road Agreement provided for the introduction of an initiative to recruit intern Health Care Assistants, Multi Task Attendants and other support grades on a 2 year programme, to be employed at 85% of the first point of Band 3 salary in year 1, progressing to 90% of same in year 2.
The Lansdowne Road Agreement provides that support Staff Interns on reaching 18 months of employment from their date of commencement will be made permanent and placed on the appropriate pay scale for their position and on the next favourable incremental point.
