GMB Union has responded to the Government's announcement on NHS pay.
The Health Secretary has confirmed he will accept the NHS Pay Review Body headline recommendations of 3.3 per cent for health workers in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Rachel Harrison, GMB National Secretary said:
"GMB welcomes the efforts made to ensure NHS workers will receive their pay increase when it is due, in April.
"The first time this will have happened in years.
"But this award is just not enough to make up for more than a decade of pay cuts under the Tories. NHS workers deserve more and GMB will fight for that at the long overdue agenda for change structural talks we have now been promised.
"GMB reps will now meet to discuss the pay award and determine next steps."
