There's been a major breakthrough in NSW's ongoing train stoush — but it's come too late to stop more disruptions on Sydney's network tomorrow.
Minister for Employee Relations Damian Tudehope has called on the rail union to call off industrial action.abc.net.au/news/sydney-strikes-going-ahead-despite-government-finalising-deed/101369038The NSW government has finalised a deed agreeing to make changes to the state's new intercity train fleet, after a long battle with the rail union.
"Until we get that deed and it's signed by some legitimate person who's going to accept responsibility for it, our industrial action will continue." "The document has now been provided, it is conditional upon the enterprise agreement being entered into, but it purports to be in compliance with the demands which have been made by the union," he said.
"Any written proposal that comes to us, it takes us at least 48 hours to get it through our various processes internally in the union and I can't promise anything better than that," he said.
