Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court recommended that Tara Mines Limited and the Group Of Unions hold immediate talks on support for 650 workers laid off without a timetable for the mine’s reopening. Management said a board decision on reopening proposals was expected on 15 March 2002 and hoped production would resume in June. The Court recognised the hardship facing workers and recommended an accommodation to bridge the period until reopening. The recommendation was signed on 11 February 2002.
