Mid Ulster strike: Industrial action expected to end





Strike action in Mid Ulster District Council is expected to end after unions and the council ended their pay discussions.

GMB, NIPSA and Unite staff began a strike over a pay dispute in July, which was to last until 21 August.

Services affected by the the industrial action has included bin collections.

The council said it was hoped all services that had been affected would return to normal on Friday.

All three unions will recommend a pay offer to their members.

The action followed a previous walk-out by Unite members in March over a local government pay offer of 1.75%.

The union called that a "real-terms pay cut" with the rising cost of living.

In a statement, the council said: "GMB and NIPSA will now recommend the offer to their members and Unite has a mandate to accept the offer, which will see staff move up their existing pay scales by two points over two years."

It also includes an improved one-off "cost of living" payment of £750.

GMB said both unions and the council had "welcomed the outcome of the constructive discussions, jointly acknowledging the importance of ongoing positive engagement."
