Why would it be unreasonable to have an independent review? BASSA appear to be claiming that the dismissals have been part of the process, rather than individuals misconduct. I doubt very much if that is the case for all, but it might be a possibility for some. What if that was the case?
One thing I have learnt from this dispute and recent training, is that do not agree to any policy that could lead to a dismissal!
