Museums shut as PCS members strike over pay and conditions

Visitors to National Museum sites in Wales have been turned away for the day as members of a civil service union go on strike.

Darren Williams, campaign officer in Wales for the Public and Commercial Service Union (PCS) says the action is part of a national dispute over jobs, pay and conditions.

He said it was also related to the museums' restructuring plan to save £2.5m, with 23 job losses.
