Dublin Bus is urging Trade Unions and workers not to engage in any industrial action on Sunday which, it says will cause unnecessary inconvenience to customers.

Members of SIPTU and the National Bus and Rail Union served strike notice earlier this week in a dispute over the implementation of a major cost cutting plan this Sunday.

The 12 million euro plan was approved by the Labour Court earlier in the summer - but union members have rejected it.

Clíodhna Ní Fhátharta, Media and Communications Manager with Dublin Bus, is advising customers that due to potential industrial action, services may not operate this Sunday.
