CIVIL servants have launched further legal action against the Home Office for “illegally” stopping payroll collection of union members’ subs.
The PCS union has already won £3 million damages in an out-of-court settlement, after ministers stopped the ‘check-off’ system of direct deduction of subs from government workers’ pay in 2015.
Now the union is carrying out its promise to pursue further pay-outs from other government departments for damages caused by check-off’s withdrawal.
