University lecturers reject Croke Park deal [Independent.ie]
- Published: 25 May 2010
UNIVERSITY lecturers yesterday became the latest educational union to reject the new deal on public sector pay.
The Irish Federation of University Teachers (IFUT) voted 67.68pc against, with 32.32pc in favour.
Two post-primary teacher unions, the ASTI and TUI, have already voted against the deal -- but it has been accepted by the INTO.
The outcome of the overall ballot depends largely on two big unions, SIPTU and IMPACT, whose executives have recommended a yes vote.
The public services committee will meet in mid-June to discuss the outcome.
