HC Deb 15 February 1993 vol 219 cc12-3W
Mr. Burden

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how the fire service pay agreement will be implemented this year; and if he will make it his policy that the cost of meeting the agreement is fully funded.

Mr. Peter Lloyd

The Government's policy that pay settlements in the public sector this year should be restricted to between zero and 1.5 per cent. applies to the fire service as to other public sector groups. Pay and conditions of service in the fire service are matters for negotiation in the National Joint Council for Local Authorities' Fire Brigades on which the Government are not represented. My right hon. and learned Friend has written to the chairman of the fire service employers' representative organisation to make it clear that he expects the employers to comply with the Government's public sector pay policy when they come to settle any pay increases in 1993. The increase in the fire service's share of local authority total standard spending for 1993–94 has been based on the assumption that any pay increases during 1993 will not exceed 1.5 per cent.
