Union vows to fightany care home cutson equality grounds
Unison’s Patricia McKeown called on local health Trusts not to publish any further proposals until March 2014 at least to allow a proper consultation to take place.
In a statement released after Unison picketed a Health Social Care Board (HSCB) meeting on Thursday she said. “We are demanding an explanation as to how core proposals and most particularly extensive cuts, closure and privatisation proposals which will have a detrimental effect on the most vulnerable groups in our society have been excluded from Equality Impact Assessment (EQIA) at all levels of the Health Service.”
