Bus strike called off

A TWO-day bus strike due to start tomorrow has been called off.

Crisis talks held between CT Plus, the drivers' union and staff from Commerce and Employment resulted in the planned action being withdrawn.

'Following constructive and positive discussions at a conciliation meeting, facilitated by staff of the department's employment relations service, between the drivers represented by Unite the Union and management of CT Plus the industrial action scheduled to take place on Wednesday 4 and Thursday 5 September 2013 has been withdrawn,' the department said.
