I would like to thank all members who came out to our series of nationwide information briefings on the new proposals contained in the Garda Sectoral Agreement of the Lansdowne Road Agreement. Members of the National Executive and Secretariat visited 20 locations and met with over 300 members during the course of the four-week information briefing series.
We had open dialogue and did our best to answer your questions. We appreciated all interactions and discussions – it’s vital members understand what you are voting on.
This initiative was necessary as we collectively move our pay campaign forward and aim for a resolution on direct negotiating rights.

We would encourage every single member to exercise his/her vote in this current Lansdowne Road Agreement ballot. Please ensure your ballot is returned and with the Returning Officer by Wednesday 24th August.I will then be in touch in the days following to confirm the final ballot result, after which the National Executive will meet to agree our next steps.If you have any questions concerning any aspect of the proposals on the table, then do not hesitate to contact the office or any member of the National Executive by phone or email with your queries or concerns.
