Crews on Scotland’s Fishery Protection vessels are ready to strike over the imposition of a two per cent pay rise which their union claims could be illegal.
The Unite union said strike action by Marine Scotland crews is “inevitable” after a lack of progress in talks with Scottish Government.
The trade union, which represents around 80 Marine Scotland workers based at Scotland’s fisheries protection fleet, has received a massive strike mandate from crews after what it described as “disappointing" negotiations.
