Bríd Smith TD speaks on Defence Forces and PDFORRA

I put questions to Minister Coveney – again – about the appalling pay and conditions that our defence forces have to endure, and crucially, why PDFORRA are not permitted to be part of the ICTU where public sector pay is negotiated. I sense a change in attitude, hinted at, if not committed to, by Simon Coveney, with regard to #PDFORRA and the ICTU. His change of tone comes towards the end of this video, from today’s Dáil proceedings. Keep after him lads (and lasses!) !!
