From the start, unions and the government were in favour of giving priority in pay restoration to those earning least. The trade unions had backed flat-rate, rather than percentage increases, as these would be of greater benefit for the low paid. This has been achieved for 2016, largely by amending the application of the public service pension levy. It will result in all public service staff being better off to the tune of €1,000. In September 2017, annualised salaries for those earning less than €65,000 will also be increased by €1,000. Trade union members have to decide on the deal in forthcoming ballots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.irishtimes.com\u002Fnews\u002Fireland\u002Firish-news\u002Flow-earners-the-big-winners-from-lansdowne-road-pay-deal-1.2231514\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.irishtimes.com\u002Fnews\u002Fireland\u002Firish-news\u002Flow-earners-the-big-winners … \u003C\u002Fa> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.independent.ie\u002Firish-news\u002Fpolitics\u002Funions-give-pact-a-cautious-and-guarded-welcome-31265596.html\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.independent.ie\u002Firish-news\u002Fpolitics\u002Funions-give-pact-a-cautious-and-guarded-welcome … \u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Mariya Nikolova \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:mnikolova@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">mnikolova@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
