Port Directive massively rejected: ITF comment

18/01/06

Commenting on the result of the vote on Ports Directive II, in which MEPs voted 532 to 120 against the proposed legislation, Frank Leys, Secretary of the ITF Dockers Section, said: "This is a massive rejection. Chalk one up to commonsense, to committed opposition by trade unions, and to virtually the whole industry uniting in rejection of the package. But even as we congratulate ourselves and thank our colleagues worldwide for their support, we must remain vigilant. You never know when the next attempt to turn the industry on its head may come."

ENDS
