After extensive talks, the Federal Executive of the Alliance has concluded that there is not sufficient consensus within the Federal Executive to continue discussions for a merger with the Community and Public Sector Union at this stage. The Alliance will continue to explore all our options to ensure we sustain a strong union, to build power at work and to represent our members and industry.
That's the formal message to members, which doesn't say a lot, on the surface.
So what's next?
Up to you, in a way. We Alliance officials are still looking at ways to strengthen our industrial and professional efforts, and if you have suggestions, please send them in.
The debate at Federal Executive was spirited, and several options are still open. If you think there is something else we can do to ensure the Alliance remains effective, please tell us. Don't hold back.
Terry O'Connor, Queensland Secretary
