Maybe you misunderstood the words a bit? Metro are still negotiating pay with the Unions Tas, so if you want more info on the Metro side of things contact Neil (Tas Bus Nut) .

In other NEWS 208 has returned along with 244 to Burnie replacement for 208 is a N113

I can understand why operators buy Chinese built buses and that is cost not quality. Australian buses are expensive compared to other countries and there a several reasons why, carbon tax is one of them. With more Chinese built coaches coming in the country I can see well known aussie builders disappearing, I hope not.
