In 1995, the Labour Court recommended resolving the dispute at Bord Gais by applying the old interest-free car loan scheme, with a maximum loan of £4,000. Employees would administer their own benefit in kind. The Court signed its recommendation on 16 March 1995. The rehearing concerned the Automobile General Engineering Mechanical Operatives Union and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union’s request to restore the scheme for Dublin Gas workers. The unions rejected the company’s cash offers. The Court said any effort to harmonise agreements across Bord Gais should proceed through normal industrial relations procedures.
