The Public Service Stability Agreement – 2013-2016 (Haddington Road Agreement) sets out the measures on productivity, cost extraction and reform which together will achieve the targeted pay bill reductions of €1 billion in the cost of the pay and pensions bill over the three years from 2013 to 2015.
The HSE has prepared a number of documents which provide further guidance on the implementation of the Department of Health Circular 5/2013 “Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest Act 2013 and the Public Service Stability Agreement 2013-2016".
