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.”
