Glasgow AXES £21M and 200 jobs from health and social care services
Trade unions gathered outside the Health and Social Care Partnership headquarters on Albion Street on Wednesday morning to protest against the proposed cuts.Members from Unison, Unite, and GMB unions hit out at the decision to back the cuts which they claim will impact 'vulnerable children and disabled adults' as well as 'home care, addiction, and homelessness services'.
He said:"There will be profound consequences for staff, service users, and Glasgow’s communities as a result of this cuts budget, because the HSCP is already long past the point of sustainable delivery. “It should be clear to everyone now there is no political plan for the recovery of local services, and there is no political will to demand more investment for Scotland’s biggest city.
“Clearly, though, members of the Integration Joint Board have serious concerns and will be making that point to stakeholders.”
