The FSP-UGT public service federation has called for an urgent meeting to be convened before the end of July with the head of the prison service to review the state of negotiations in the sector. The union is particularly concerned about provision for training in the prison service. It has called for a proper training plan and setting up a training centre but is now concerned that funds for these will not be available and that there is no proper training plan.
