    As part of the union’s campaign to defend jobs and public services the NIPSA General Council has agreed to establish networks of local NIPSA representatives across the different sectors in common geographical areas.

    As a consequence NIPSA representatives in the Craigavon area are invited to a meeting at 11.00 am on Thursday, 9 December 2010 in the Craigavon Civic and Conference Centre, Lakeview Road, Craigavon to discuss how best local NIPSA representatives can work together to oppose cuts in public services and jobs.

    It is essential that all NIPSA representatives attend this meeting, if possible, given we are facing an onslaught on public services and public service jobs as a result of the policies and decisions of the new Conservative/Liberal Democrat Coalition Government in Westminster. Over the next number of weeks the NI Executive will begin the consultation process on the 2011-2014 budget, which will adversely impact on members in the Craigavon area and it is important that we can prepare for this.

    It would be helpful if you could advise Karen Wright at NIPSA Headquarters; karen.wright@nipsa.org.uk by Monday, 29 November of who will be attending from your Branch in order to assist the planning and catering arrangements.

    Yours sincerely

    BRIAN CAMPFIELD

    General Secretary
