Union threatens action over deadline
The General Secretary of the National Bus and Rail Union, Michael Faherty said his members need more time to consider what it would require from the new authority and said there must be an extension to the December 1 deadline.
Mr Faherty said the DTA involved the widest ranging proposals in over half a century and therefore the NBRU needed assurances the commitments given during negotiations with the Government for the protection of employment and safety standards are going to be delivered in the legislation establishing the DTA.
