As the object of the exercise is to cut costs what gave you the impression there would be full time vacancies created with a revision?

it might do though if there are more fts jacking it in, but not enough pts - forgive the expression but you might have a chance with dead mans shoes.

18 part timers were made up to full time at Kidderminster. So I thought when the revision was done at my office at least a few part timers would get made up..
It really depends on the revision and how many hours are already in YOUR office - too many and the result is as you've experienced, too few and the opposite is true.
