Attitudes hardening in Catholic negotiations By CAROL BALDWIN Special to The Champion It seems there's a third party at the table negotiating for the secondary achool teachers' contract. The Halton Secondary Catholic Teachers and the Halton Catholic District School Board were scheduled 60 meet yesterday (Thursday) 60 try 10 work out their différences, but the provincial government seems 10 have created a situation that bas prompted the union to request the appointment of a conciliator. The situation, according to Fred Sweeney, director of education for the Catholic board, is the implemen- tation ofRBill 160, which is now law. "What we're doing, basically, is taking out of the collective agreement ail of those things that were put in legisîstion with Bill 160. So, anything that deals with the principals -- thats ail out. Anything that deals with the vice-principals - that's out. Anything that deals with clasa size - that' s out. Anything that deals with pep-time - that's out. So tht's ail we're doing," said Mr. Sweeney. "'We're not doing anything more than what's in the legisîstion because if it's in legislation, you don't need it in the collective agreement." ioe Diubaldo, president of the Halton Secondsry Cathoic Teachers, begs 60 differ. I guesu there are two issues. One, that they are uni- lsterally moving ahead 60 organize and 60 staff the sehools in a model that they defined, which basically resta on their interpretation of the legislation and their belief that they don't have 60 negotiate at the table," he said. "They have stripped out every staffing clause in our collective agreement and that means everything from class size stipulations 60 pupil/teacher ratios, every clause is being strpped out, and they're interpreting that they bave carte blanche 60 do it.

Mr. Sweeney said Mr. Diubaldo's explanation echoes the statements he has been hearing from the union's provincial office. "We have no intentions of stripping the contract. We're just taking out ail that'stuff thats not necessary as the resuit of the passage of Bill 160, and nothing more," he said. It appears, from what we're seeing in the newspa- pers and what we're hearing, that this seems t0 bc a province-wide thing - that the Ontario Secondary School Federation and the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association, Secondary School Teachers, are trying to muster a whole bunch of strike votes around the province. Whether or not they'll push for a province-wide strike, 1 don't know." A strike vote by Halton Secondary Catholic Teachers, said Mr. Diubaldu, was also scheduled for Thursday if no agreement is reached. The vote allows the union to plan for future job action, if the need aris- es, he explains.
