In 1988, the Labour Court recommended a £150 lump sum and a 4% basic-pay increase for production workers at Macnaughtons Twisteel Reinforcements Ltd. The recommendation was signed on 18 April 1988. The Marine Port And General Workers Union had sought a 10% basic-pay rise, a similar bonus increase, service days and a higher Christmas bonus. The company had offered a £150 lump sum but opposed further ongoing increases, citing market pressures.
