Unions analyse cross-frontier issues against Brexit backdrop
Johnny Bugeja 11th December 2020
Unite the Union on Friday participated in “constructive dialogue” on key cross-frontier issues with other trade unions in both Gibraltar and Spain through the offices of the European Trade Union Confederation [ETUC].
A wider range of topics of mutual interest were discussed and “significant consensus” exists, the union said.
The discussion, held virtually, came against the backdrop of an ever developing position on Brexit both domestically in Gibraltar and internationally in the UK and Brussels.
“These were important and positive discussions with our trade union colleagues that complement well the existing work of the Cross Frontier Group and the Inter Regional Trade Union Council,” said Unite’s Kaylan Lucas, who is also Secretary of the Inter Regional Trade Union Council.
