FDA joins Unions pension strike row

The First Division Association (FDA) has voted to go on strike, over proposed changes in pensions that would see their retirement age increased from 60 to 65.

The FDA comprises of permanent secretaries, crown prosecutors, diplomats and other senior figures running government departments and agencies, and if action goes ahead, it will be the first time the FDA has gone on strike since 1981.

It is the latest in a string of unions to protest pension reform, and the FDA joins Unison, the TGWU, Amicus, PCS and Ucatt, in planning strike action on March 23rd.
