The Report 42 matter is progressing as per the Labour Court recommendation (LCR 19986) under the sectoral bargaining provisions of Building Momentum whereby outstanding adjudications, recommendations, awards and claims may be looked at again.
The outstanding pay awards under Report No. 42 have already been accepted and acknowledged as part settled by Fórsa on 13/04/2022 in their letter to the HSE they stated the following:
"The Senior grades comprehended by the Report no.42 of the review body on Higher Remuneration will accept 1% during the lifetime of this agreement as part settlement of this outstanding matter which still requires absolute resolution following expiry of the current agreement."
Further progress to resolution is expected through the next public service pay agreement as the mechanism recommended by LCR19986
