The TUC has organised a parliamentary lobby for the TUC health service unions and the RCN, RCM and BMA on 25th October. Please ensure that members are made aware of this date and are encouraged to attend. Amicus will be organising travel arrangements from the regions and you will be advised of these in due course.
The lobby is intended to raise the issues which concern all NHS staff including: privatisation, financial deficits, staff redundancies, foundation trusts and the impact of changes brought about by Commissioning a Patient Led NHS.
Amicus and all the unions anticipate a tremendous turn out for this event - so please maximise support for it in your workplace.
The TUC has prepared a briefing for MPs in preparation for the lobby and this is attached.
If you have any question arising from this edition of Reps Direct please contact your Regional Officer.
