Appeal ruling
CWU unsuccessful in its application to overturn interim injunction
The CWU has been unsuccessful in its application to the Court of Appeal to overturn an interim injunction granted by the High Court on 13 November 2019.
The postal ballot was deemed unlawful and an interim injunction was granted. This decision still stands.
What does this mean?
- The injunction prevents any industrial action being taken before the completion of a lawful ballot, and formal notification to the Company of any action.
- It is vital that our colleagues are able to vote without any constraint imposed upon them by any other party.
Ready to talk
- We want to reach agreement.
- We have written to the CWU asking for discussions without preconditions.
- Following this offer, we are hopeful we can now have meaningful discussions to resolve this dispute.
