Your news story concerning the tribunal hearing for two London Ambulance Service personnel (page 8, 5 March) in which they were exonerated and found to have been unfairly dismissed gives the impression they were both represented by Unison. This is not so.
Bob Foster is a Unison member, while Jim McGregor is a member of the Association of Professional Ambulance Personnel. Mr McGregor has been represented from the start of this case in October 1994 by APAP's LAS union officer, Jonathan Fox.
The written tribunal decision mentions the clear evidence of Mr Fox and the precise questioning of our counsel as being a major factor in the decision.
APAP is now in negotiations with LAS as to remedy and potential reinstatement.
Peter Kenney, General secretary, APAP, Shepton Mallet, Somerset.
