The Nolan Show has learned that the Chief Constable has lodged an appeal against a tribunal judgement that could land the PSNI with a thirty million pound bill for backdated holiday pay. Earlier this month, a judge ruled that up to 3,700 officers and civilian staff were owed money as their holiday pay had been based on basic working hours, not the actual hours worked including overtime. Judge Kelly said the PSNI's failure to pay was a breach of European law. Some police forces in Great Britain have already settled claims with officers following a landmark ruling there in 2014. Stephen spoke to the solicitor for some of the claimants, John McShane and got the views of former Assistant Chief Constable Alan McQuillan.
