The Minister for Finance is expected to ask the Cabinet tomorrow to approve a plan that would see restrictions on salary and variable pay for bankers working at lenders which were bailed out by the State eased

It is understood that the proposals include allowing banks to pay bonuses of up to €20,000 to their staff.

If approved the plans would also see the current salary cap of €500,000 removed from Bank of Ireland, which is no longer partially State owned. Remuneration restrictions were put in place on the banks in the wake of the financial crash over ten years ago, as a result of what subsequently emerged about the actions and practices of senior bankers across the industry.

Unions had also joined the call, as they claimed ordinary frontline staff were also suffering as a result of the restrictions on variable pay and other benefits.
