Members are advised that the Employment Court Judge delivered his verdict to the Union this afternoon. The Judge has ordered that the Union and the Employer must return to mediation before notice of strike action is given to the employer.

To that end the strike action planned to start on the 1st July 2011 and postponed by the Union at the request of the Courts to Saturday 9th July at 08:00 cannot now take place.

A further notice and clarification will be available on Monday.
