National Demo - 30th Sept - 1pm - Parnell Sq.

Free Money - Nama Dollar

There has been a great response to the Wednesday 30th September protest with dozens of organisations support the campaign. These include ICTU, SIPTU, IMPACT, UNITE, Dublin Council of Trade Unions; the Community Sector Employers Forum, PLANET, the Community Platform, the Community Workers Co-Op, Pavee Point, CDP’s, Community Employment, Citywide Drug Crisis Campaign, National Women’s Council... to name but a few.

The whole sector is mobilising because of the previous savage budget cuts and the “ bord snip nua” McCarthy report which proposes the elimination of 6,600 jobs in the community sector.

Importantly, the Community Sector Employer bodies have urged their members and other employers to facilitate maximum turnout for the protest by releasing their workers for the march. However, we still need to encourage as many people as possibly to come along on the day. So please speak to your colleagues and other projects in your area.

A poster has been attached that we are asking people to circulate.

We have also attached a free €55 billion NAMA dollar - paid for by community projects and services.

To find out more or get involved in the campaign, please contact:
