Statement by Minister Ross on Dublin Bus talks

Transport Minister Shane Ross welcomes the news from the WRC concerning the Dublin Bus dispute.

Speaking today Minister Ross said:

I think I am as relieved as every member of the travelling public to hear there has been a breakthrough in the talks between Trade Unions and management.

I would like to thank the WRC, the Trade Unions and management for their commitment to these talks. The hard work, the steely patience and the long hours that they have all put in over the past few days – particularly in the last 24 hours – is encouraging.

The Trade Unions will now ballot their members and this important process will begin shortly.
