Wales Labour Health Minister had to be forced, by Senedd vote, to meet with the Royal College of Nurses late last year.

Labour need to do more to avert further Nurse strike

Commenting on the RCN’s rejection of the latest pay offer by the Labour Government in Wales, Welsh Conservative Shadow Health Minister, Russell George MS said:

“With the Labour Government’s latest pay offer being rejected by nurses, it is vital that talks resume, Ministers get around the table and a solution is reached before there is disruption again in June.

“The Labour Health Minister had to be forced, by Senedd vote, to meet with the Royal College of Nurses late last year. We don’t want to have to see a repeat of that this time.

“Given that Labour said that this was their ‘best and final’ offer, we need to hear urgently from them, their plan to resolve the dispute beyond their expression of disappointment.”
