Italy - Ministry of Justice workers get broad support - April 29, 2010

A demonstration on 24 April in Rome by workers at the Ministry of Justice, organised by the FP-CGIL public services federation, was supported by a range of legal and political organisations that are concerned about cuts to legal services. The union federation argues that the combination of precarious employment conditions and major job cuts are making it increasingly difficult to deliver effective services.
