All garda officers are to show up to work tomorrow following a decision in the eleventh hour of the strike crisis.
A last-minute announcement has been made by the Garda Representative Association to say that they are suspending all strike action.
Friday’s industrial action has been cancelled as GRA representatives take time to consider the Labour Court recommendations issued this evening.
As a result, the walkout originally planned for tomorrow morning by gardai of various rankings has been deferred until further notice.
Garda sergeants and inspectors had decided to call off their strike earlier tonight in the wake of the Labour Court findings, now the 10,000 rank-and-file gardai in Ireland will also report for duty tomorrow as normal.
All garda stations across Donegal are expected to open, while emergency services and regular garda peacekeeping duties will be carried out.
The Labour Court had today sought to resolve the dispute between Gardai and the government over pay restoration and conditions. The GRA had said in a statement last night that any non-binding recommendation from the Labour Court would be put to members for a ballot. As voting continues, the strike has officially been suspended.
