BMA and RCN pensions statement – UNISON response

Responding to the BMAs and the RCNs call for the government to reconsider its

pension reforms, UNISONs head of health, Christina McAnea said:

“The BMA vote and RCN statement show the strength of feeling throughout the

health service about the governments pension reform plans.

“Talks to finalise the detail of the agreement are continuing. When these talks

are concluded, the final offer will be put to members.

“Our strike ballot remains live so that we can take further industrial action if

members reject the final agreement.”
