Association members were released late yesterday after being taken in
for questioning by police for protesting outside Government Buildings
where a Cabinet meeting was in progress. Shortly before midday,
security in and around Government Buildings was increased as reports
filtered in of a protest there by nurses. FNA members arrived in pairs
