The UNISON Health Service Group Executive (SGE) agreed yesterday afternoon by an overwhelming majority to consult members by secret ballot on the final package. This will be on the basis that the proposed agreement is the best that can be achieved by negotiations. I am a member of the Community SGE (we also have members in the NHS). We met as well and agreed this position. Both SGE's are made up of elected Unison lay representatives.
I think the ballot will go ahead next month. Hopefully a decision will be made on the Local Government Pension Scheme sometime in the near future.
quite right to let the rank and file decide what to do, well done Unison, im sure the trotts and loons will cry sellout but thats because they cant dictate to health workers to follow there tinpot agenda let the members decide
