Action to target government parties

THE Government parties are to be specifically targeted in Monday’s escalation of public service industrial action against the budget.

At a national level, IMPACT trade union has instructed members not to process political representations from government party TDs or senators.

“This is to include TDs elected to the Dáil and Senate from Fianna Fáil, the Green Party and former Progressive Democrats who supported the Government’s attack on public servants pay,” said IMPACT general secretary Peter McLoone in a letter to branch secretaries.
