- The National Union of Civil and Public Servants was formed in 1988 by the amalgamation of the Civil Service Union (CSU) and the Society of Civil and Public Servants (SCPS). On 1 January 1996 it amalgamated with the Inland Revenue Staff Federation (IRSF) to form the Public Services, Tax and Commerce Union (PTC), a merger agreed in October 1994.
