Introduce an independent pay review of public sector workers

Closed 8,203 signatures

What the petition asks

Many public sector salaries have been set by pay freezes and arbitrary caps since 2010. It is proposed that an independent body be established to wholly review and set salaries to reflect inflation, housing cost rises, and market rates. This will bring them inline with MPs.
