Section 11 of the Public Service Pay and Pensions Act 2017 requires a report on the cost of, and a plan for dealing with these matters within 3 months.

Available data were returned by the Sectors and analysed.

The report and the data underpinning it will provide an evidence base to inform dialogue between the parties on this issue over the period ahead, in accordance with the terms of the PSSA.
