Scrap the public sector pay cap
21/03/18
Downing Street said officials who decide pay across the public sector had been told they no longer had to limit recommendations to 1% rises.
A No 10 source said: “The independent pay review bodies will make their recommendations in the normal way. We have said as a Government that the arbitrary 1% pay cap is no longer in place.”
