The agency workers for the North Tyneside Rockets already had that assignment, ages before any strike was announced. They're therefore allowed to continue, legally.
The law prevents agency workers being hired in for the purpose of covering striking workers.
The law Dan refers to, it has always been in place, even going back to the TULR Act in the early 90s. The Govt recently tried to remove it, but it was overturned by the High Court this year.

So if the indefinite strike goes ahead and the assignments run out the buses would cease to operate?
Also, if Nexus take the fares from these services surely they cant be too happy that GNE are telling the public no services ( bar schools) will run yet they are running some rockets in North Tynside - if there was ever a waste of fuel this seems to be it
