Vol. 505 No. 1
229 Mr. R. Bruton asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if he will make available a redundancy package for the estimated 120 wardens who are not required by Dublin Corporation in view of the fact that transferring workers directly to a redundancy package is in conflict with the spirit of the directive on transfer of undertakings. [13315/99]
I have no plans to make available a redundancy package as suggested by the Deputy.
However, a voluntary redundancy package is proposed by Dublin Corporation as part of the joint Garda Commissioner-Dublin Corporation PCW pay agreement currently being considered by the unions representing the traffic wardens. This voluntary redundancy package forms part of the proposals which offer enhanced pay and conditions to the traffic wardens on transfer to Dublin Corporation.
