HPA statement: talks with MUA "useful and constructive"

Mr Jack continued that this was a very difficult time for HPA. He added that at all times HPA had followed correct Australian procedures in relation to planned redundancies and had been focused on communications with its employees and customers as a priority.

He regretted that there had been some misunderstanding about the actions of the company more widely in the media but acknowledged this was perhaps inevitable given the painful situation confronting both the company and its employees and the associated emotions.
