The congress of Trade Unions and Staff Associations (CTUSAB) is hoping the Employment Rights Tribunal will be up and running by the end of January.
Terming the recent resignation of eight of the nine members “very unfortunate” and “to be regretted by all”, president Cedric Murrell said yesterday that the congress was in the process of identifying and recommending a new set of people to sit on the tribunal.
Murrell said CTUSAB was aware of the problems being faced by the tribunal, and had highlighted them in writing and offered suggestions on how they could be overcome on two occasions this year. Given the difficulties and the subsequent resignations, Murrell said the congress would not be making those nominations until it was assured that the necessary procedures and infrastructures are in place this time around.
