Strike action called off

The PPTA has called off strike action set down for this Wednesday.

At a meeting last night the PPTA Executive decided that there had been sufficient improvement in the Ministry offer to continue bargaining.

PPTA president Robin Duff said that while most of the substantive issues had been resolved bargaining would continue this week to sort out some of the details. “The parties are hopeful that a settlement can be finalised soon.”
