The Dublin Council of Trade Unions, in conjunction with the Youth Committee of the ICTU and in co-operation with the Health trade unions, wishes to inaugurate a 'Campaign for a Decent Public Health Service'.

The Campaign hopes to bring together those who work in the Health Service and their trade unions, with patients' advocates, Health and Hospital campaigners, concerned Health professionals, community and voluntary organisations, the trade union movement in general and the general public to demand a civilised Health Service.

We hope to open with a large Public Meeting on 11th February:
