Vita Cortex talks continue at LRC

Informal talks between the parties involved in the Vita Cortex dispute in Cork and the Labour Relations Commission continue today.

The first round of negotiations broke up last night without resolution after seven hours.

Thirty-two members of staff at the foam packaging factory in Ballyphehane are continuing with their sit-in at the building, which they began in December.

They are seeking proper redundancy pay, but management has said it cannot afford to compensate them, because NAMA's frozen the company's assets. 

LRC Chairman Kieran Mulvey says the fact that the parties are willing to work together is a positive sign.
