The union say "The ballot process will commence from the 21 May concluding on the
18th June."
NATS financial report.........around
26th June as per last year ! Very convenient for management
. That is why we should delay the vote till after the financial report is published.
"The regulatory accounts were approved by the Board on 26 June 2008 and
signed on its behalf by
Finance Director ______________________ Nigel Fotherby"
Which makes me even more suspicious 
This really is playing into managements hands Why didn't the unions change the date to finish after the huge profits are published? Let me guess........so you can get your pay "rise" quicker
