The passage of the Courts, Civil Law, Criminal Law and Superannuation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024 has been welcomed today.
This Bill will allow for an increase in the mandatory retirement for uniformed public servants, including members of An Garda Síochána, Prison Officers and the Defence Forces, from 60 to 62 years of age, for those who wish to avail of it
The Bill will also increase the maximum fines payable by airline and ferry companies, where they allow someone to travel into the Irish State without proper documentation.
