RMT Press Office:
RAIL union RMT has suspended strike action planned for Saturday November 1, following talks with the company to resolve issues regarding the undermining of safety-critical roles and threats to safety and jobs.
The company has provided proposals aimed at resolving the issues at the heart of the dispute which will require approval from the Department for Transport.
RMT general secretary Eddie Dempsey congratulated the membership for their steadfast support for the union.
“While the union remains in dispute, we now expect to see tangible progress made by November 19 in order to reach an agreement on all outstanding items,” he said.
