In 1993, the Labour Court recommended that workers at Kilkenny Limestone accept the company's offer under the Programme for Economic and Social Progress. The recommendation was dated 22 March 1993. The offer had been rejected mainly because the company wanted to end the 15 August holiday. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union said the holiday formed part of an earlier agreement, while the company said the conditions attached to its 3% offer were reasonable for its business and customer needs.
