Question
To ask the Scottish Government what pay increase junior doctors will receive in 2021-22.
Answer
I announced on 12th August that I have accepted the DDRB recommendation of a 3% pay uplift for 2021-22. This award recognises the unprecedented year that NHS Scotland has faced, and ensures that Doctors in Scotland continue to be the best paid in the United Kingdom.
