The RCEA wishes all members a happy and safe holiday season.  We are looking forward to 2007.

AD Group: An arbitration brief is being prepared. We are waiting for the establishment of the Arbitration Board and the scheduling of hearing dates.

AS Group: An arbitration brief is being prepared. We are waiting for the establishment of the Arbitration Board and the scheduling of hearing dates.

CS Group: The RCEA has requested that an Arbitration Board be established.  We are waiting to hear from the PSLRB.

OP Group: No news at this time.

PG Group: We are still waiting for the collective agreement to be printed. We are told it should go to the printer this week. NRC has explained that the delay is due to the fact that PIPSC raised a number of concerns with respect to the French translation of the grievance process language. Presumably, NRC delayed the printing of our agreement because they wanted to have the same French translation in all agreements.
