Description

General Manager of the Times newspapers Dugal Nisbet-Smith threatens production will stop if the unions do not respond well to talks over labour relations. New equipment is needed to keep up with the market, and hopefully re-entering the market will be possible, but the longer suspension continues, the harder it will be.
