Having little hope of reaching an agreement, Dublin Bus management said it would no longer wait for an agreement and started implementing the labour court recommendation, including longer working hours and cuts in annual leave of clerical workers and management unilaterally. Bus services were resumed, after Dublin Bus suspended the implementation of the cost-cutting measures in favour of further talks mediated by the labour court. The parties then agreed on a temporary package of cuts on overtime pay and allowances that would be implemented for 19 months, after which working conditions would go back to normal. Some 72% of SIPTU members and 67% of NBRU members have rejected the recommendation; six other grades of workers have yet to be balloted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>English: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.rte.ie\u002Fnews\u002F2013\u002F0816\u002F468628-dublin-bus-ballot-result\u002F\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.rte.ie\u002Fnews\u002F2013\u002F0816\u002F468628-dublin-bus-ballot-result\u002F\u003C\u002Fa>  \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.independent.ie\u002Firish-news\u002Fbus-drivers-win-no-pay-cuts-deal-29485449.html\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.independent.ie\u002Firish-news\u002Fbus-drivers-win-no-pay-cuts-deal ... \u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.irishtimes.com\u002Fnews\u002Fireland\u002Firish-news\u002Ffull-dublin-bus-service-from-tomorrow-as-talks-agreed-1.1486064\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.irishtimes.com\u002Fnews\u002Fireland\u002Firish-news\u002Ffull-dublin-bus-service-from-tomorrow ... \u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fa> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Mariya Nikolova \u003Ca href=\"mailto:mnikolova@etui.org\">mnikolova@etui.org\u003C\u002Fa>.
