Union row over promotions may block civil service decentralisation
Rosaleen Glackin, deputy general secretary of the 13,000-member Civil, Public and Services Union (CPSU), said the union’s support for decentralisation was ‘absolutely conditional’ on securing promotional opportunities for those that continued to be based in Dublin.
“While we have been strong supporters of the plan, we will not see our Dublin members who have built their lives in the capital left behind,” she told the annual CPSU conference in Killarney.
