Answer
Industrial Relations issues are the responsibility of Translink as the employer. I can advise you that Translink has kept me informed of developments as this issue has progressed. I was aware that both Translink and the Labour Relations Agency have offered to meet the union representing the employees concerned. I would hope that this offer can be taken up as soon as possible if this has not already happened.
