RANK and file Gardai in Co Donegal are set to oppose proposed cuts to their pay.
Representatives of local officers say any Government plans to further reduce wages further hit morale in the force.
The union which represents them – the Garda Representative Association – will meet on Monday to discuss the proposals.
The GRA said the government has presented a ‘menu’ of cost cutting measures and changes to working practices that will be outlined at our central executive committee meeting on Monday.
GRA President John Parker said: “Gardaí are facing great financial hardship while continuing to provide great dedication and commitment to the community.
“Our members cannot pay their loans and mortgages. This is not about choice; pay cuts are not an option.”
