Don’t meet the union, deputies are advised

THE deputy responsible for negotiating States pay up until the election advised politicians to stay away from tomorrow’s public sector workers’ wage presentation. All States members have been invited to La Grande Mare, where Unite regional industrial organiser Ron Le Cras will give the talk on behalf of the workers.
Former deputy Jonathan Le Tocq said members were free to go but had been advised not to because pay negotiations, as far as the States was concerned, were a matter for the Public Sector Remuneration Committee, which he chaired in the last government. ‘The PSRC is mandated to negotiate on the States’ behalf,’ said Mr Le Tocq.
‘The new States has chosen a chairman and committee members and it’s up to them to pick up the pieces from where we left off. ‘We thought that while we were in the middle of negotiations, the new committee should be given time before something is done.’
States members who attend the meeting are likely to hear a one-sided argument, he said. (Guernsey Press)

Ah so if they don't go, and just listen to the States side that's ok then?... Sorry at lot of these public workers voted the new states members in, they states members should attend this meeting to ensure that they will hear all sides of the argument..

Unions are more trouble than they are worth!

It seems to me that anything to do with money the states are not interested. They say they have to cut back on expenditure so by ignoring it it might go away Good start to a new house.
