    Any updates on the local bargaining? Will we see it implemented in 2026?

    Latest I've seen is from the published minutes of the AHCPS Executive Council Sept. meeting on their website (published in the last couple of days) so applying to AP and PO:

    "Update on Local Bargaining claims. A further engagement was held with DPEIPSRD on the 27th of August. This was attended by the GS and DGS. There is broad agreement in relation to the 1% claim for 1 September this year. Further engagement is required on the remaining 2%. The figures provided by DPEIPSRD in relation to costings are as follows: PO Bargaining Unit 1% = €1.67m and AP Bargaining Unit 1% = €4.2m. The figures for our 2% claim are: PO Bargaining Unit 2% = €3.34m and AP Bargaining Unit 2% = €8.4m. The next meeting will focus on the Management Side “asks” and a detailed conversation around the costings of the claims".

    There was something put out awhile ago, and might already be in this thread somewhere, that management side asks overall included shifting all payments to fortnightly and expenses to monthly.

    No chance of getting anything this year at this stage I'd say, Christmas salary change cutoffs not far away and there's probably loads of T&S claims flying in trying to beat the deadline.

    Even if agreement was reached - but there's no sign they're even planning on further talks this year

    I'm partial to your abracadabra
    I'm raptured by the joy of it all

    Spoke to a union rep and he said if it was a straight percentage it would have been agreed already but far more difficult to cost the 'drop points 3,5 and 7 and remove waiting time for LSI' type arrangements being sought.

    Local bargaining offer received

    "Following extensive talks in recent weeks and months an offer in principle has been made in relation to Fórsa’s first cross sectoral local bargaining claim, which applies to clerical officers and grade 3 equivalent roles in the public service."

    "An offer in principle has been made in the civil service for executive officers, administrative officers and higher executive officers. These grades are in the same cross sectoral bargaining unit as grade 4-7 roles in the public sector, however as the pay scales are of an entirely different construct, a separate offer will be made across the other sectors in respects to grades 4-7."

    FORSA have received offers? Maybe i need another coffee but I can't see what has been offered. The original proposals have been accepted?

    I think they have just been counter offered by DPER, Forsa will review and decide the best course of action. Be January or February before we get action
