Public and Commercial Services Union

Land Registry is heading for further challenges in the coming months. We are still negotiating on the fall out of the ATP announcements. Ongoing issues include; proposed outsourcing, RA/RO deployment, merger of Plymouth sites, Head Office and, of course, supporting members in closing offices. We are also in the process of establishing what will emerge from the management restructuring at local offices. Our role is clearly to achieve the very difficult balance of job retention and meeting individual members' aspirations. All of this has to be done under the shadow of uncertainty of the civil service compensation scheme (CSCS).

With these issues, the spectre of further proposed public sector job cuts and the Government's pay freeze, it has never been more important to be part of a united, campaigning Trade Union. I would urge all members to; keep up to date with the LR PCS and national web sites, read all of our material, attend meetings and take part in forthcoming ballots.

All the best,

Michael Kavanagh
PCS LR Group President
