Unions say they’re considering their next move after all the government’s hundred bus drivers were given their notice yesterday.
The Department of Community, Culture and Leisure made the move after failing to reach agreement over paid lunch breaks it wants to take off drivers to save £300,000 a year.
The drivers will have to reapply for their jobs under new terms and conditions and the department says it has contingency plans to keep services running.
Billy Chesnut of Unite says a ballot will be held shortly to decide how members want to respond:
Inquest into death of man who died in Hillberry crash opened
Reduced hours for a number of sub-Post Offices come into effect
Gas regulation bill criticised for lack of clarity, accountability and purpose
Housing, healthcare and overspending some of the concerns ahead of elections
