October 22, 2011Correspondence today between the Union and the Department has resulted in a breakthrough in the current dispute over the LSV Staffing arrangement.

Consequently all bans remain in place. The parties are appearing before IRC Commissioner Ritchie in Newcastle at 1000 hours tomorrow, where the Department will make application for Dispute Orders against the Union.
It is the Department that has bought on this dispute, and the Department that can end it. Our demand is eminently reasonable - simply that FRNSW management remain true to their word.
