More than 200 power workers have moved a motion of no confidence in Premier Morris Iemma and the New South Wales Government over the planned electricity industry sell-off.
The workers from the Vales Point and Lake Munmorah power stations at Lake Macquarie, in the Hunter Valley, met yesterday at lunchtime and did not return to work after the meeting .
The maintenance and administration workers returned at 7:00am (AEDT) today.
Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) spokesman Allen Drew says the workers have also signed a petition organised by the Newcastle Trades Hall Council.
"The workers moved a motion ... of no confidence in Morris Iemma, [Treasurer] Michael Costa and the Iemma Government in the way they are handling this process and the lack of consultation," he said.
