The Labour Court recommended a pay pause until 30 June 1987, followed by a 2% increase in basic pay from 1 July 1987 and a further 2% from 1 January 1988 for about 10 painters and mechanics at Carrick Craft Boat Hire. The Irish Transport and General Workers' Union argued that the workers' rates lagged comparable work. The company cited years of losses and low bookings. The recommended agreement was to end on 30 June 1988, and the recommendation was signed on 6 October 1987.
