Representatives from Caledonian MacBrayne and RMT have met to discuss the present situation and both parties are satisfied that progress has been made and that a proposed settlement has been agreed in principle.

The details have still to be discussed with RMT members and it would be inappropriate at this stage to expand on these details.
