SA's over the strike

In the last lot of strikes we were told that RM couldn't cancel our SAs without 4 weeks notice so we still got to do them (apart from actual strike days!). This time there is talk that RM are going to decide at a national level whether to cancel the SAs that fall in between the 2 strikes - Sat 1200 to Mon 0300.

I think this is the wrong question, we should be asking do we do any overtime at all while we are in dispute? I know management will threaten us with agency staff or casuals but they can't get the same amount or quality of work done and in the current situation I don't think many outside staff would last long. SA's are different cos they are contracted but we should'nt be doing them on strike days and I am heavily in favour of a complete overtime ban!!
