HC Deb 04 June 1981 vol 5 c407W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether, as a means of resolving the salary dispute affecting nursing, he will offer to the nurses a £44 a day tax free daily allowance payment.

Dr. Vaughan

No. The negotiation of nurses' pay and allowances is the responsibility of the Nurses' and Midwives' Whitley Council.
