Pay For Technically And Scientifically Qualified Staff In The Nhs

EDM number 320 in 1998-99, proposed by Desmond Turner on 11/02/1999.

That this House is gravely concerned by the extremely low pay for technical and scientifically qualified staff in the National Health Service, without whom an increasingly science-based service is in danger of collapse; and accordingly urges the Government to address the issue of pay for staff groups outside the Pay Review Body as a matter of urgency in order to maintain the recruitment and retention of essential highly skilled workers to the National Health Service.

This motion has been signed by a total of 152 MPs.
