Strike action affects day centres

Strike action in Glasgow Day centre staff at Scotland's largest local authority are striking over pay and conditions.

Glasgow City Council's drop-in centres for adults and children with disabilities are affected by the indefinite industrial action.

About 200 staff are taking part in the latest in a series of strikes over plans to change pay and pensions.

A council spokesman said it was willing to negotiate but insisted any talks must also include a review of services.

About 800 adults and children use the drop-in day centres.

No talks have been planned and both sides said that a lengthy dispute looked likely.
