Following a meeting yesterday (Wednesday 5th February) of the employers side of the NJC and the trade unions, an offer was tabled for an increase of 2% on all Scale Points, from 1 April 2020. This would add £364 million to the payroll in the year 2020/2021.
This was rejected by the unions and another meeting will be arranged to discuss the next steps.
We will keep you advised of developments.
