Nothing to be done and new black smoke in the meeting between unions and Amat held in the Prefecture. After the negative from the offices of the Analogous Control of the Municipality of Palermo the hope was to find an agreement with the company. and instead steps backwards have been taken with the new strike that seems imminent.
“The second cooling-off procedure for the Amat dispute has produced nothing”, the representatives of. declared in a joint note Cgil, Cisl, Uil, Orsa, Cobas and Cisal. The company president also denied the agreement proposal already signed on June 4th, defining it as just a discussion and therefore, as far as the signature of the General Management of Amat was concerned, it was only misunderstood by the parties”.
“The Prefecture office represented by Doctor Barbera – they added –, having seen and recorded the clearly contrary positions of the trade union organizations and firm on keeping the dispute open, considering the positions of President Mistretta and the even more serious absence of the Municipal Administration, therefore closed the meeting negatively. In the next few days – they conclude – we will communicate the fourth strike action of the Amat workers”.
