The Government has agreed to a timed amendment to the Industrial Relations (Provisions in Respect of Pension Entitlements of Retired Workers) Bill 2021.

This will allow time, as I outlined on the floor of the Dáil, to examine the issues carefully and to ensure that all stakeholders are consulted.

I have given the matter careful consideration and to this end a consultation process will commence as soon as possible and will involve engagement with organisations representing retired workers.
