Bus drivers are set to be balloted this afternoon on a new cost-cutting deal agreed between their union and the Department of Community, Culture and Leisure.
The previous deal, which also included an end to paid lunch breaks, was overwhelmingly rejected by the drivers when they voted on it last week.
The latest one was agreed between Unite and the DCCL last weekend.
