Privatisation of Police & Probation Services

Back to all Motions

Conference
2014 Police & Justice Conference
Date
23 June 2014
Decision
Carried as Amended

This Government and likely future Governments agendas for shrinking the State and privatising Police and Probation services is resulting in our members being employed by private companies. The effect of this is the fragmentation of UNISON branches in the Police & Justice sector which will make it increasingly difficult to organise, support, recruit and retain members in the sector.

This Conference instructs the National Service Group to develop a strategy to maintain and increase Police and Probation membership in the growing private sector.
