NSW:Oprah strike 'a last resort': unions
Filming of the Oprah Winfrey Show in Sydney this week could be disrupted .. if maritime
workers decide to strike over wages.
Unions will meet at 10 o'clock this morning (AEDT) to discuss whether they'll stop
work for 24 hours .. after wage negotiations with NSW Maritime broke down.
If the action goes ahead .. workers won't deploy the buoys .. ensuring the exclusion
zone at the Opera House remains in place during tomorrow's filming of OPRAH's talk show.
Workers are seeking a 15 per cent wage increase over three years and an improvement
in work conditions.
