If it is the decision of the Authority to continue with the subcontracting decision for the work in question after the above described procedure has been completed, or in the event the Authority sells, conveys, or leases any current operation, the Authority shall negotiate with the Union as to the effect on employees of the decision to so transfer the operation.
