The Labour Court recommended improved redundancy terms for 151 members of the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union at Lowe Alpine International’s Tullamore plant, which was due to close on 31 March 2001. The recommendation was signed on 16 March 2001. The recommended offer included statutory payments, four weeks’ pay per year of service as an ex-gratia payment, and £75 per year of service. It was to settle outstanding claims arising from the closure, including the union’s claim to include a 2% increase due on 1 April 2001.
