HUMZA Yousaf has reiterated the Scottish Governments offer to mediate talks’ between the UK Government and junior doctors and consultants after a joint strike was announced for the first time in the history of the health service.
The offer from Yousaf comes after Scottish health secretary Michael Matheson wrote to his UK counterpart Steve Barclay offering to mediate new talks between the parties after the Scottish Government managed to avert strike action.Junior doctors accepted a 12.4% pay boost which British Medical Association Scotland said set the country apart"from what is happening elsewhere in the UK".
In what has been described as a “serious escalation” in their row with the Government over pay, both consultants and junior doctors will strike together on October 2, 3 and 4. Junior doctors will then continue their strike on September 21 and 22. Staff will work on a “Christmas day cover” basis for both spells of industrial action, meaning emergency care will continue to be provided.
