Edinburgh City Council - Stop Press
Further discussions about a possible settlement with Edinburgh City Council - have concluded on a positive note.
One or two details need to be double checked - but everything looks to be on course - as reported on the blog site last week.
Action 4 Equality Scotland will be writing to Edinburgh clients - with all the details - by the end of next week, or as soon as all the paperwork from the council is received.
So, in the meantime - sit tight - and await further developments.
The council's settlement offers extend only to female employees in former manual worker posts.
The fight for equal pay on behalf of former APT&C employees and groups of male workers will continue - with an important appeal hearing taking place in April 2010.
