UPDATE ON LEAP-FROGGED DRIVERS DIRECTORS MEETING.
Today the RMT and ASLEF met with Management concerning the leap-frogged drivers situation.
Management put a proposal that all 23 affected leap-frogged drivers would receive a days pay for every week that they were leap-frogged.
Management said that this was a "gratis payment" as the leap-frogged drivers did not work full-time during this period and it would be unfair to pay them for work that they never did.
