The result therefore means that the proposed document has not been accepted by those balloted and therefore no agreement to change exists.
Openreach have previously indicated that it would be their intention to implement changes to attendances should the ballot return a negative outcome.
At the time of writing, no official notice has been received by the CWU of any action Openreach will take in the coming days.

It will be the NT’s intention to call a Branch Forum to discuss the ballot result and next steps early next week.
