Council Of Civil Service Unions
The Council of Civil Service Unions (CCSU) was a trade union federation in the United Kingdom. The federation's origins lay in the Civil Service National Whitley Council, a joint bargaining organisation consisting of trade unions and representatives of the civil service as an employer.

As a result, in 1980, they formed the independent "Council of Civil Service Unions".Jack Eaton and Colin Gill, ''The Trade Union Directory'' (1979), p.4 The founding members of the federation, with the number of seats they initially held, were: * Association of First Division Civil Servants (2 associate members) * Association of Government Supervisors and Radio Officers (2) * Association of Her Majesty's Inspectors of Taxes (2 associate members) * Civil and Public Services Association (20) * Civil Service Union ( ...
