Bus drivers to strike for third time

Mon, 18 Feb 2013

Bus drivers will go on strike again on Saturday.

They’ll hold a 10 minute stoppage from 4.37am to 4.47am.

It’s the third time drivers have resorted to industrial action as part of an ongoing dispute over changes to their terms and conditions.

Community, Culture and Leisure Minister Graham Cregeen says it’s extremely disappointing that Unite the Union has decided to conduct further strike action.

Despite the unusual time the department says it is within the operational day and it will act to deal with any impact caused.
