In an ideal world the atsas and engineers would now be offered a bigger/better deal than the atcos.
The ATCOs settled for less than RPI and that was entirely their decision.
NATS engineers work very hard and we have delivered real cost savings to the company. Plus there is a lot of overtime being worked by engineers so clearly there is a shortage of Engineers.
Having rejected the pay offer and gone into dispute with the company I believe we shouldn't do anything more than listen to the company until the Annual Report is published and we have had a good chance to look at the figures.
That I believe is the only sensible way forward.
