Éamon Ó Cuív (FF), Galway West

I will cut to the chase. I understand there were negotiations between the unions and the Minister of State's Department, proposals were put together at official level and those proposals were then sent over to the Department of public expenditure, as all such changes inevitably must be. When were those proposals sent to the Department of public expenditure and what response came back, either in the form of a further information request, a refusal or agreement? As I said, I understand the negotiations concluded and a proposal was forwarded.
