Bands 1,2 and 3 are relying on benefits to top up their wages.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand that you'd like NHS staff to be paid more, but we're not sure exactly what pay increases you'd like to see.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
