Press Releases for the Transport Sector, 2010

The Department is concerned that efforts to reach agreement through a mediated process have failed. We are also concerned at the impact that the protracted strike action will have on the economy. Transnet has, however, assured us of its continued commitment to ensuring that agreement is reached.

We therefore remain confident that both parties will continue to explore all available options in order to reach a speedy resolution to this matter, with due regard for employees, Transnet’s viability as a company, and in the interests of the South African economy as a whole.
