A hard copy of the proposals has issued to every member.
These documents will be put to ballot of the appropriate membership in a manner as yet to be determined by the Executive Committee and at a time yet to be determined. The Executive Committee continues its examination of the proposals and would hope in the near future to be in a position to issue further information in this regard.
Meanwhile branches, school groups or members are invited to submit questions as to the implications or meaning of any of the provisions of either document. The Executive Committee will attempt to provide answers or interpretations to these where possible.
As has been stated before, the Union has made it clear to the Official side, at both second level and third level, that in the event of these documents being agreed by the Union they will be agreed only on condition that the Government or any future Government does not renege on the Agreement. In the event of a Government reneging on the Agreement and either introducing pay cuts or compulsory redundancies to permanent/CID staff the Union will not be committed to retaining any of the provisions of these documents.
Members should familiarise themselves with the content of the documents. Any further relevant information will be uploaded on this website.
