the contract “aligns pay scales and career progression across all groups, meaning pay rises apply to everyone under this contract”.
In other words, the way the contract works means that if nurses get a pay rise, other NHS staff would too. So the £9.8 billion figure refers to all NHS staff on Agenda for Change contracts who would also be entitled to a pay rise—not just nurses.figure by 14, reflecting the fact that the 19% request would be 14 percentage points higher than the existing pay award, which averages around 5%, though the DHSC has not confirmed this. .
It’s not clear from the fact sheet published by the government how exactly the £700 million figure has been calculated, or if it takes into account the same issues with taxation that we described with the £28 billion figure above. We asked DHSC how it was calculated, and if it took into account money that could be recouped through higher rates of taxation, but did not receive an explanation.Ms Caufield also repeatedly claimed that for each percentage point pay was increased, the government would have to find either £700 million or £800 million.: “For every percent we’d have to put pay up, that’s £700 million we’d have to find”.
THATYS BECAUSE THEY LIE ALL THE TIME
Curious as to whether this pay element includes agency staff?
Brexit, Brexit, Brexit oh, how Brexit is defeating you,now you have the Rishi that was a part of Brexit down turn , how much more damage can you enjor 16 to 20% worse off after leaving the EU how much more will Brexit do to you getting very like Italy now one in one out 👇
Also tax is based on income, and not all households earn the same income
In summary: a Tory minister lying to the public about how their money is spent (again).
She's ERG so struggles with facts.
She claimed £200,000 in expenses, her hubby is her manager so she stopped being a nurse for her second job as the salary was crap.
She knowingly lied ToryLiars
I've got one for you
