The Irish Congress of Trade Unions is seeking an urgent meeting with the Minister for Transport, Martin Cullen, after the Dublin Airport Authority refused to meet Congress to discuss a row over cost cuts at Shannon Airport.
The Shannon Airport Authority has withdrawn a €35m restructuring plan which was overwhelmingly rejected by staff some weeks ago.
Executive chairman Pat Shanahan told staff that while management cannot cut permanent staff numbers, they will now carry out a review of all areas of their cost base.
