GMB response as Nottingham City Council issues section 114 notice

GMB Union, one of Nottingham City Council’s largest staff unions, has responded to the announcement that the authority has issued a Section 114 notice.

Adana Godden, GMB Organiser, said:

“Nottingham City Council has fallen victim to the Government’s neglect of our vital local services.

“The Council's funding has been cut by more than 40 per cent since 2010; it’s shocking that this Government are sitting on the side lines as local communities suffer.

“This news will no doubt cause great anxiety for workers in Nottingham.

"GMB will be focused on making sure that the people who keep Nottingham running are heard in the days and weeks ahead.”
