The Labour Court recommended local discussions on the Health Boards’ nursing-management structures after the Irish Nurses Organisation, the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union and the Irish Municipal, Public and Civil Trade Union sought standard staffing arrangements and recognition for staff acting up in higher posts. The Court said a single recommendation across hospitals of different sizes could create anomalies. It recommended that local talks be completed within two months, with unresolved issues eligible to return to the Court for a definitive recommendation. The recommendation was signed on 20 March 2000.
