Nurses would be permitted to move on to enhanced salary scale under proposed deal
Government representatives held their first round of talks on Wednesday with nursing unions on a new contract which forms part of proposed settlement to the recent nurses’ strike.
However it would appear that the contract talks are unlikely to be concluded within the three-week deadline proposed in therecommendation which led to a suspension of the strikes by nearly 40,000 nurses earlier this month. Under the proposed deal nurses would be permitted to move onto a new enhanced nurse salary scale – which attracts higher payments – after the beginning of March.and the Department of Public Expenditure declined to comment on Wednesday on whether nurses would still be allowed to move to the new scales from the beginning of March in the event of the new nursing contract not being finalised in time .
