Former general secretary Roslyn Smith and the National Union of Public Workers (NUPW) are still battling about whether she was wrongfully dismissed.

NUPW president Akanni McDowall provided this update yesterday, while noting that the parties were still negotiating.

“We met with the Labour Department on September 20, and those discussions were cordial. Sister Smith brought her representatives and we put forward our case. There were some interesting points made during the meeting.

“Suffice [it] to say, those discussions will continue and once we have a conclusion to the matter, we will be able to report to the press in a more fulsome manner,” McDowall told the media yesterday. (TG)
