CEO Barry Hinkley says "there was a long discussion today
with ideas and claims bounced between us. We thought we had
made an offer that would see drivers return to work however
it was not agreed to by the unions.
"We will continue
discussions and we hope to find a way to resolve this so
that normal service can resume as soon as possible," says Mr
Hinkley.
