DurbanJuly2019 'shutdown' called off after parties reach agreement

Durban - The Vodacom Durban July will go ahead without any interruptions, says the Academic and Professional Staff Association as an agreement was reached on Friday night between the union and Phumelela Gaming and Leisure.

"We can not divulge until we have consulted members. We are happy that we will be going back to the discussion table, we are solutions driven and looking forward to the July 12 meeting where a final decision on the proposals made last night would be discussed," said Boitumelo Senokoane, general secretary of APSA.

Associated with about 500 workers who face retrenchments, the trade union said it would shut down the event should Phumelela continue with the retrenchments.
