Proceeding contribution from Philip Hollobone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 January 2017. It occurred during e-petition debate on Agenda for Change: NHS Pay Restraint.
Agenda for Change: NHS Pay Restraint
I congratulate the hon. Lady on her excellent speech, which I am following closely. Is there not very thin moral justification for the Government rejecting the review of an independent pay body when each of us as MPs has our pay independently assessed and awarded? I can see no justification for saying to hard-working nurses in Kettering, “You can’t have the pay rise that an independent pay body said you should have” when I, as an MP, automatically get a pay rise awarded by our independent body.
