Unions representing frontline staff say progress has been slow, with no breakthrough reached during negotiations with the HSE

Talks in the National Ambulance Service pay dispute are set to continue at the Labour Court later this morning.

Unions representing frontline staff say progress has been slow, with no breakthrough reached during negotiations with the HSE.

It follows previous days of talks as some strikes have already been called off.

Workers are seeking revised pay scales to reflect increased duties and workloads, while unions say proposed changes to allowances remain a sticking point.

Industrial action, including a planned 72-hour strike, is set to take place next week if progress isn't made.
