    Sorry but it will have no effect on the system (if by which you mean the CSA computer system).

    Also not everyone at the CSA is on strike, only those union members who chose to. Many CSA staff are not in the PCS union.

    But where ever you heard that would also be reporting the reason why, besides this thread should not be in the CSA forum, should be in discussion time should it not? :o

    Thanks phatbear, don't know why the OP was trying to scaremonger, it's all over the radio news reports, (have not had the TV on this morning) but every radio report of the industrial action has been followed with the reason why, and more so, they have not even mentioned the CSA staff individually (in fact not at all) :p

    Havnt you read a newspaper or watched/listened to a new broadcast over the past week?

    Its been in all of the papers and in the news.
    When dealing with the CSA its important to note that it is commonly accepted as unfit for purpose, and by default this also means the staff are unfit for purpose.
