Union rep responds to DoI pay offer
A union representative insists bus drivers aren't interested in money after the Department of Infrastructure offered a £25,000 lump sum to those accepting new terms and conditions.
Debbie Halsall is regional officer of Unite Union says the new deal doesn't just include a lower salary, but lesser terms for the workers.
Speaking on Mandate this morning, she revealed the drivers were initially offered a smaller lump sum, but that no amount would change their minds.
She believes the workers just want to get on with their jobs:
