BADGERLINE AND EASTERN NATIONAL BUS COMPANY

That this House regrets that employees of Eastern National Bus Company, based in Chelmsford, have been dismissed whilst lawfully contemplating industrial action in furtherance of a trade dispute; notes that not a single employee was on strike at the time the sackings took place; regrets that the employer took this precipitate action whilst trade union representatives continue to be available for negotiations; and calls upon the parent company, Badgerline to order the reinstatement of all the dismissed employees and to initiate renewed negotiations with the Transport and General Workers Union in an endeavour to resolve the dispute to the mutual satisfaction of the employees, bus users in Essex and the company. (Relevant registered interest declared.)
