THE NATIONAL UNION of Public Workers has advised its members at the Customs and Excise Department not to sign option forms to go over to the Barbados Revenue Authority.

This was revealed today by general secretary Roslyn Smith.

She said the workers have been told to wait until the union meets with them on Monday.

Smith said the NUPW was still negotiating with Government about the transition.

Last week general secretary of the Barbados Workers’ Union Toni Moore said she was satisfied that her members had enough information to decide whether they want to sign the forms. (GC)
