MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT - DAVE PRENTIS

"The negotiations on public sector pensions reach a critical stage.

We have been working hard in those talks to protect your pensions, and although there are key issues still under discussion, we have made progress.

In both the health and local government schemes, talks are continuing, and as soon as we can share any details with you, we will - please keep an eye on our website.

Together we have faced challenging times with strength, determination and unity – and we will take this through to any challenges we face in 2012."
