FDA poaching PCS grades

The FDA is desperately trying to attract PCS members at higher executive officer and senior executive officer grades. FDA is acting in clear contravention of TUC rules by effectively seeking to ‘poach’ members for whom PCS has bargaining and recognition rights and, conversely, seeking to recruit members for whom the FDA does not have bargaining rights.
