Slightly off topic but I thought that the pensions negotiations were to be linked to this years (jan 09) pay deal......Where is the paydeal offer? Or is a secret until we show how much we are willing to fight for our pensions then the increments will be sweetened accordingly???
Unless NATS offering us a pay deal for the next few years of greater than RPI + 0.5 % then whats the point of this clause? Our pay rises will still be negotiated in the same way!
