Bus drivers to strike over TT

Thu, 16 May 2013

Bus drivers will strike for 12 days over the TT period.

Unite the Union has confirmed they will take further industrial action at a time set to cause maximum disruption.

The strike will start at 12.01am on Saturday and last until Wednesday, June 5th.

The drivers have told government that the action will be called off if it re-offers the original deal, whereby only their paid lunch breaks were to go.

The Department of Community, Culture and Leisure has just over a week to respond.

Eric Holmes from Unite outlined the conditions of the new deal they’ve put to the DCCL.
