Yes it is in Paul Stoddart's best interests to do right by all staff both working and not. If he is seen by his backers to have failed on all counts, I cannot really see him starting up this new operation in Oz.
It is only right that he pays us now up to the time we were made redundant.
As regards THAT form. I'm getting very mixed messages on what to do with it and what boxes to tick etc. The HR department are saying that the company is insolvent whereas balpa are saying that we can fill in the form and send it in but tick the box to say it is solvent. Tricky one. I'll probably wait for the next balpa newsletter and make my decision then.
