HALIFAX — An unfair labour complaint against the Halifax Chronicle Herald has been adjourned as the striking workers and the company say their lawyers have met to discuss further bargaining.

The Halifax news company says in an emailed release that the editorial workers requested the delay in the hearing.

The Halifax Typographical Union says it and the company are seeking to renew negotiations after lawyers from both sides met for informal discussions.

The union has been on strike since Jan. 23 of last year, and 55 workers have continued to picket and to operate the online news site Local Xpress.ca.
