The Labour Court recommended voluntary redundancies at Allegro Limited, with the company retaining the right to accept or reject volunteers. It recommended five weeks’ pay per year of service, inclusive of statutory entitlements, capped at €50,000. Allegro and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union had disputed redundancy terms and a salary review. The Court did not recommend a salary increase, finding the claim was cost increasing and precluded by the Programme for Prosperity and Fairness. The recommendation was dated 19 March 2003.
