PSA PROBATION MEMBERS CONSIDER NEW DEAL

PSA members working for the Community Probation Service will be meeting early next week to consider an improved offer to settle a new Collective Agreement.

" After working through the proposal with national delegates for two days, we are now in a position to take the offer out to members." said PSA national secretary Richard Wagstaff.

The PSA will be sending out detailed information to members over the next couple of days and holding meetings next week.

"The offer is an improvement. It is now up to members to decide whether or not to accept it".

Members will be voting on the new offer at the scheduled meetings and results should be known before the end of next week.
