Currawong Back on Agenda


NSW unions will this week consider a new deal to upgrade facilities at the Labor Council's Pittwater property Currawong in a management agreement with the Transcendental Mediation movement.

The deal, which would upgrade union training facilities while maintaining holiday access to Currawong, was restructured after a lease proposal failed to pass Council despite 90 per cent affiliate support.

The new contract arrangement includes the same basic proposal as the lease deal, but requires a bare majority to be approved.
