THE British Medical Association (BMA) has won an improved pay offer for Welsh hospital doctors following two months of negotiations and 10 days of strike action.

It urged members of BMA Cymru Wales to accept the terms today, which include a 12.4 per cent backdated pay rise for junior doctors for the 2023-24 financial year. 

Consultants have been offered a revised pay scale with “significantly better starting pay, and an additional pay rise of up to 10.1 per cent,” said the union.
