The Union will consult with the remaining grievors from the group and ask each of them whether they want to continue with the grievance or withdraw. 2. For those grievors who intend to continue with the grievance they will be advised that their physical presence will be required at all future dates. 3. If a grievor does not indicate to the Union by November 30, 2017 that they intend to continue with this grievance, they will be deemed to have withdrawn the grievance. 4.
