Two of the biggest health unions in Northern Ireland, unisontheunion and nipsa, have said they will not give evidence to a Pay Review Body, questioning its independence
after a recommendation by an independent review body earlier last year.
Doctors and dentists in Northern Ireland will get a 4.5% uplift with other health service staff getting an additional £1,400 a year, backdated to April 2022.At that time, Anne Speed from the union Unison said the uplift would not settle the pay dispute because inflation was at 11%.
