The Labour Court found no merit in Amicus's claims to improve Enterprise Ireland's voluntary redundancy and early retirement packages, and recommended accordingly. The recommendation was signed on 20 September 2006. The union sought changes including higher redundancy payments, removal of caps, revised early retirement eligibility and grants for further education. Enterprise Ireland said the programme followed Department of Finance parameters and was not open to negotiation. The Court found the terms consistent with those criteria and with comparable semi-state schemes.
