I have no intention of inflaming a dispute that has already gone on for far too long by commenting on either an individual council or the actions of the trade unions that are involved, although I think that the trade unions and the local authorities need to realise that there are parents and children out there who deserve the best possible quality of service. I have no intention of commenting on Dundee City Council and anything that it might have said, on any Unison branch and anything that it might have said, or, for that matter, on SNP local authorities, who are reaching local settlements outwith the demands of the union for a national settlement.
