MANAGEMENT?of?the Caribbean Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) will meet with officials of the Barbados Workers’ Union (BWU)?tomorrow to discuss the issue that led to a work stoppage at CBC on Monday.

It is understood that members of CBC’s board of management met for several hours at the corporation’s offices yesterday.
