#RFAStirlingCastle crane defect rectified - tested while alongside in Portland this week (with water-filled load test weight bags).

However, the ship is unlikely to return to sea before next year due to the shortage of sailors.

View of the 🇳🇿HMNZS Manawanui wreck site.

RNZN and 🇼🇸Samoan divers continue to assess the ship. A light oil slick has been seen. A leak from an engine room vent is the source which will be plugged.

A Navy team has been established to react to any contamination of local beaches and to remove debris that has started to come ashore.

Yesterday another round of Dispute Resolution talks was held between MoD and @nautilusint (representing RFA officers). Talks were cordial but MoD wishes to avoid re-opening 2023/24 pay settlement and is focused on 2024/25.

Unfortunately, in the opinion of the negotiations team, the 24/25 offer presented was below expectations and will not resolve the ongoing dispute nor is capable of addressing the retention and recruitment challenges faced.

@rmtunion have already voted to continue industrial action and Natilus are likely to follow.
