Any connection between the employment negotiations at Cobham and the request for Expressions of Interest for positions at AeroRescue?
Contracts for Search and Rescue services are underway and Border Protection services must be under strain at the moment (given the number of Suspected Irregular Entry Visitors).
Cobham could not afford to lose experienced staff to AeroRescue because that would make it hard to get the SAR contract. Losing staff might make it hard to meet contractual obligations for the Border Protection contract too.
Where will this one go?
