SCOTTISH LOCAL GOVERNMENT PAY CLAIM.

The Scottish Local Government Committee at its meeting held on the 6^th October, 2005 received and considered a report of the branch pay consultation exercise on the size, shape, content and length of settlement on the 2006 pay claim.

The Committee AGREED:~

That UNISON's position would be that in order to allow for a degree of flexibility in discussion on the formulation of a Trade Union side claim at the Special Meeting of the Trade Union side of the Scottish Joint Council (SJC) to be held on the 13^th October, the claim should have the following parameters:~

• A settlement effective from 1^st April, 2006 to 31^st March 2008.

• A claim that accommodates a percentage and/or a fixed sum applicable to all Spinal Column Points. (This may include the term "whichever is the greater" if a mix is applied to each year).

• A revision of the minimum rate.

More details will follow.
