The Labour Court recommended that the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union accept Adelphi/Carlton Limited's proposal for Carlton Cinema employees to apply for jobs at a planned multiplex, with their experience and service recognised. The recommendation was signed on 7 October 1994. The union sought direct transfers or enhanced severance for staff facing the Carlton Cinema's closure. Adelphi/Carlton Limited said employees could apply through the same selection process as external candidates, with preference if equally suitable. The Court recommended that unsuccessful applicants and employees choosing redundancy receive three weeks' pay per year of service, statutory redundancy and a £1,500 lump sum.
