I previously considered and approved a 2% increase to pensions in payment for RTÉ in May 2022, which was implemented in August 2022.
The Trustees of the RTÉ Pension scheme subsequently made an application for a 2.5% increase to pensions in payment, backdated to 1stJanuary 2022. This request has been evaluated by NewEra and I am currently considering it.
My recommendation will then need to be reviewed and approved by the Minister for Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform.
