Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Bill 2011: Report Stage (Resumed) (11 Jul 2012)

Mary Lou McDonald: I tabled amendment No. 35 to remove much of the discretion provided to the Minister in the Bill.

There is no need for all the caveats and staged examinations set out in the Bill. My amendment simply seeks to...

Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Bill 2011: Report Stage (Resumed) (11 Jul 2012)

Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Bill 2011: Report Stage (11 Jul 2012)

Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Bill 2011: Report Stage (11 Jul 2012)

Mary Lou McDonald: ...of the issue is the difficulty with the fast accrual calculation. A lengthy exchange took place in respect of the fact that everybody under the new scheme will be less well-off in terms of their pension entitlement and it will be a matter of degree. The difficulty that arises for particular categories of workers in the Garda Síochána, the Defence Forces, prison officers and fire...

Public Service Pensions (Single Scheme and Other Provisions) Bill 2011: Report Stage (11 Jul 2012)

Mary Lou McDonald: I move amendment No. 16: In page 25, line 9, to delete "year for the pension, and" and substitute the following: "year for the pension, that amounts to no more than €60,000, and". This boils down to a straightforward proposition, that the pension payable to a public servant would be capped at €60,000. The amendments I have tabled propose to alter the legislation at various junctures to...
