Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if she will increase the pay of junior doctors; and when she next plans to meet their representatives to discuss pay.
Junior Doctors have already received a pay uplift of up to 10.3% for 2023-2024.
When industrial action is called, the Government’s priority is supporting the National Health Service to prepare for that action and keep patients safe. On that basis, my right hon. Friend will not meet with the British Medical Association Junior Doctors Committee when strike action has been called.
