The GRA says it will be demanding the newly formed government address a number of ‘urgent issues’ as soon as it comes to power.
These include the re-instatement to the pre-2008 salary of €25,745 for all new garda recruits.

Their pay was cut by 10% by the current government, leaving them with a basic wage of €23,171.
New recruits also took a hit of €4,017 when their rent allowance was abolished.
The association said it will be demanding pay cuts for all members at garda rank to be reversed.
The GRA is also calling for an urgent recruitment drive in Templemore.
