Contract Negotiations

AMALGAMATED

10th December 2002

Mr. Pat Riley
International Longshoremen’s Association
Local 273

Dear Bro Riley,

I am outraged to find that the Employers at the Port of Saint John are taking a very negative attitude in so far as they wish to go back to “Jurassic Park” in relation to their negative negotiating tactics.

The attack on working conditions and wages of your Members is scandalous and I wish to advise that we are fully supportive of any action you may wish to take.

I have forwarded this correspondence to SIPTU, who and by large, look after all the Dockers in the Dublin Port.

Yours Sincerely,

John Bolger
Republic of Ireland Secretary
