Summary

Formed originally in 1918 as the Meat Inspectors' Association, Commonwealth Public Service and renamed the Meat Inspectors' Association, Australian Public Service in 1974, the Union operated until 1991 when it became part of the Australian Public Sector & Broadcasting Union, Australian Government Employment.

By the end of 1992 the Australian Public Sector & Broadcasting Union had amalgamated twice more, firstly with the Professional Officers' Association and then the Professional Radio & Electronics Institute of Australasia to eventually form the Public Sector Professional Technical Communications Aviation & Broadcasting Union. A year later this union had merged with the CSIRO Staff Association to form the Public Sector Professional Scientific Research Technical Communications Aviation & Broadcasting Union, which, in 1994 evolved into the Community and Public Sector Union [CPSU].
