With effect from 1 April 2008 the Department of Health directed Health Authorities to implement new pay scales for the 2008 salary uplift for GP Registrars as recommended by DDRB. The revised direction can be downloaded from the Department of Health website; the full text of the revised Schedule 1 to the direction is available here: GPR directions Schedules 1 and 2 (July 2008). Following discussions with the BMA, NHS Employers has produced guidance on the application of pay protection to doctors entering GP registrar training from posts other than in hospital training grades. GPR pay protection guidance. This has now largely been superseded by the revised arrangements, for posts contracted on or after the 1 August 2007 as set out in the Direction, but is left here for reference. Guidance on the transfer of Senior House Officers and other training grades into the new Specialty Registrar grade has also been agreed with the BMA, and is available here. Negotiations with this group on contractual issues are conducted by NHS Employers with the General Practitioner Committee (GPC) of the BMA. Last reviewed 18 Jul 2008 |
