"I am delighted to be informed that UNISON’s consultative ballot has resulted in acceptance of the additional elements offered in our letter to the unions on 8th November 2024.
"Acceptance of the additional elements means we are able to conclude the 2024/25 pay negotiations with an agreement from all three trade unions.
