As it stands, negotiations have broken down. Firefighters will initiate industrial action stemming from a vote they took last year when more than 90% of them said "enough is enough". That stemmed from the results of a previous survey of firefighters that stated 60% of them do not see a future because of the work-life balance and all the other issues. As we currently sit here, negotiations have broken down. Are there plans for negotiations to recommence?
