A few short updates

Just a few wee updates - apologies for the lack of a coherent narrative to them, but just wanted to flag up a few points in a hurry!

Letters have been set to both Danny Alexander, MP, Financial Secretary to the Treasury, and Jamie Stone, MSP, highlighting the plight of Wick staff and seeking their action to secure continuing employment on the closure of the Tax Gap in Wick.  When we get their responses, a further update will be posted.

The agenda for a training workshop to be held in Wick on the evening of  the 31st of March has now been completed, and the venue booked.  Please contact Neil Bell if you are interested in taking part.

A branch briefing has been issued to PCS Branches in Revenue & Customs, and within 24 hours, orders for 1400 extra stickers had been received from around the country, which is outstanding!


Finally, the Wick Wants Work! banner was again unfolded on Friday at a meeting of the PCS Scotland Committee, at which support for the campaign was unanimous.
