SOE Merger

The Minister of Stadiums, Trevor has announced that two SOEs which affect farmers are to merge. Another bureaucratic committee has been formed to action the merger. My warning bells are sounding because the PSA is over the moon, citing that they are happy that their 1050 members are being actively managed during the merger.

As a grass polisher, actively managing my beefies, I could be very happy that the merger of AgriQuality and Asure might reduce future levies, but am extremely worried when the union is happy. Economies of scale and a reduction in staff (particularly unionised staff) post-merger? - time for a Tui!
