Matching resources to tasks facing branches

The UNISON Scottish Committee seminar on 30/31 August will plan how to translate national policies into practical action.

UNISON Scotland Convener Mike Kirby said, “It will be a key opportunity to explore the implementation of conference decisions.

“It will aim to match the UNISON Scotland resources to the tasks facing our service groups and branches in defending jobs, pensions and services. “It follows round-one of the emergency budget cuts in June and comes before the anticipated onslaught of the Comprehensive Spending Review in October. This will be translated into the Scottish Government budget late in the year.

“The seminar will also draft the UNISON Scotland manifesto for the Scottish Parliament elections next May.”

The Scottish Committee is made up of reps from all service groups, self organised groups, NEC members, officers and members elected by branches through the Scottish Council.
