RTÉ were first off the blocks this morning reporting that "formal talks on a public sector pay deal are to resume at the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) today but, as of now, Thursday's planned public sector strike is still going ahead."
The Irish Times refreshed its coverage of public service pay talks just after 7am this morning to report "Talks on public sector pay and avoiding a planned strike later this week will return to the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) after late-night talks appeared to produce a breakthrough."
The Government Appointed Group concluded after 1am this morning, and the parties return to the WRC later this morning.
Meanwhile, more than 50,000 Fórsa members have indicated their intention to attend the planned rallies on Thursday, and they are just the ones we know about.
