View from the Chairman

Responding to the decision by the Home Secretary to implement the Police Arbitration Tribunal decision in full, together with those Winsor recommendations already agreed by Staff Side and Official Side of PNB, Simon Payne, Chairman of Warwickshire Police Federation says:

"We are pleased that the Home Secretary has honoured the Police Negotiating Board ( PNB ) process and will ratify the decision of the Police Arbitration Tribunal."

"However, whilst we accept that decision, it does not mean that we're happy with the outcome. Whichever way you dress it up, this will mean serious financial hardship for police officers."

"Lets not forget, this government is unduly targeting police officers. In addition to what amounts to a four-year public sector pay freeze and increased pension contributions, police officers are having to contend with a range of changes to terms and conditions: the result of which is effectively a pay cut."

"We also wait to see what the Winsor Part Two report recommends and will fight to ensure that police are not financially disadvantaged any more."
