Community, Culture and Leisure Minister Graham Cregeen says he hopes talks can resume soon aimed at averting further strikes in the Island’s bus service.
Today is the second day of industrial action by drivers over plans to cut paid lunch breaks as the department tries to slash £300,000 from its budget.
Mr Cregeen says valuable lessons were learned yesterday as replacement services were hit by traffic accidents and poor weather.
But he says negotiations are currently on hold:
Steam Packet reports rise in passengers and profit
Two candidates to compete for chief minister position
Applicants to pay for marine infrastructure reports
Commissioner pleads not guilty
