Guillotine Section at last

I have had fish & chips at the seaside & am now travelling home so here's what went on in the guillotine section.

All the motions were carried.

Emergency motion A614 calls for support for reps sacked from CSA Hastings. There have been five branch officers a number of other reps in the last two and a half years. The current branch secretary is awaiting the outcome of his case but has been told off the record that he is also sacked. The management at the office, however, think that it is OK for a BNP council candidate to continue in employment.

Motion A78 is calling for an equality impact assessment on PCS subscriptions as there is an upper limit for better paid members. The NEC will report back next year.

Motion A68 refers to the writ to arrest Tzipi Livni, the former Israeli Foreign Minister, for war crimes. It calls for a campaign to prevent a change in the law.

Motion A46 calls for a campaign to get our young members to help progress the TUC's trade unionism into schools campaign.

Motion A96 calls for a PCS Employment Tribunal Unit to be set up to offer advice, support and representation to members.

Motion A137 calls for all telephone numbers for the services provided by our members to the public be changed to 0800.

That was all we had time for.

I'll be back at work on Monday. If you have any questions please get in touch.
