Agreed, Just sarcastically pointing out that if it's such a good deal for us why did he get that massive bonus and secondly how about a pay rise for us before we throw the kitchen sink

I would say it was more to do with the fact he stopped or at worst delayed any future court cases on RP then any perceived gain in productivity.
As for a pay rise for us? You’ll get no argument out of me on that one.

Couldn't agree more, SOUTHPAC.
It really is negotiations 101. So sad that so many of our members don't understand that. Voting with emotions? sorry, but the pit of my stomach says that RP07 doesn't favor us. Just follow the money. Who stands to profit from RP07 if it is voted in, and then ask yourself why.
How silly we will look if the original RP07 proposal is accepted after being shot down the first time arround.
Against/Against is really our only option.
But don't worry folks. Either way, we'll never go to fallback. Even if everyone voted Against/Against, I'm sure the AOA would find another reason to extend us for maybe having another go at the vote.

Ladies and Gentlemen
RESULT OF THE VOTE ON ROSTERING PRACTICES
At 12 noon today, voting closed on the motions on Rostering Practices.
First of all, I would like to thank all those Members who participated in this vote. Out of a total of 1042 members entitled to vote, 950 did so; this is a 91% turnout and is a very good response by any measure.
A summary of the votes cast is as follows:
Motion 1 For Against Abstain
To accept the Revised Company
Proposal for RP 2007 Policy Agreement 28 894 28
Motion 2
To accept the Original Rostering
Practices 2007 Policy Agreement 700 239 11
The Association’s Rules require that for a motion to be carried, it needs to attract either more than 50% of the total Membership voting in favour or more than two-thirds of those voting in favour. In this vote, both requirements were exceeded in the case of Motion 2.
Therefore, Motion 1 is lost and Motion 2, be it resolved that the Membership of the HKAOA accepts the Original Rostering Practices 2007 Policy Agreement, is carried.
I will now inform the Company of the Membership’s decision and make arrangements to sign the Rostering Practices 2007 Policy Agreement which will take effect from 1 May 2007. The administrative arrangements and COS improvements that form part of the Agreement will follow in due course.
Again, on behalf of the General Committee, I thank you for exercising your entitlement to vote in determination of your future and demonstrating support for your Association.
Regards
Steve Turner
President
