Royal College of Nursing responds to the Pay Review Body letter
Royal College of Nursing General Secretary and Chief Executive, Pat Cullen, said: “This letter is extremely late and it confirms the next pay award will be late too. There is no evidence that the government has honoured its commitment to improve how the process works despite a consultation earlier this year. Nursing staff received the lowest pay award in the public sector for 2023/24 - we end the year in formal dispute with ministers and campaigning for a pay rise that addresses the staffing crisis in the NHS."

District nurses even pay their own fuel costs to travel to patients."
