View answerThe terms and conditions of employment and retirement of eircom employees, including pension arrangements, are a matter for the board and management of eircom. While I have no function in this matter, I understand that the superannuation scheme provides for dispute resolution including a mechanism for final appeal to the Minster for Public Expenditure and Reform for eircom employees who served in the former Department of Post and Telegraphs prior to vesting day (1 January 1984).
