Pact Bectu TV Drama Agreement update

Latest joint statement from Pact and Bectu:

Pact and Bectu met again on Friday 23rd September for a day of further negotiations on the terms of the Pact/Bectu TV Drama Agreement. Negotiations have now concluded and Pact has committed to submitting a new offer, reflecting the terms negotiated during the last month, for Bectu members to consider.

Allowing time for the offer to be drafted, consulted on by Pact, and any points of clarity resolved, a Bectu member consultation will then take place from 10th October, followed by a ballot between 14th - 23rd October.

During this period, crew should continue to be engaged on the terms of the 2017 TV Drama Agreement until it is superseded by a new collective agreement, or the agreement expires following the ballot.
