:04:28. > :04:32.good people. I'm not sure now is the time to be awarding such high pay

:04:41. > :04:43.measure thanks largely to the hard work of doctors, nurses, midwives
:04:44. > :04:45.and every body else. If there will be a double`digit pay rise, it
:04:46. > :04:50.should apply to everybody or nobody. The last increase for staff at the
:04:51. > :04:54.trust was 1%. How will they feel tonight they watch this? I'm in

:05:01. > :05:04.that senior management are seeing a massive increase while they are
:05:05. > :05:06.not. I think they will be upset, quite rightly so.
:05:07. > :05:10.The executive turnover at the trust over the last two years has been
:05:11. > :05:15.quite a lot. If you want to keep these people, retain them, you have
:05:16. > :05:18.to pay competitively in the marketplace. That is a problem we
:05:19. > :05:22.have had. Over the last decade and they are, we have had a massive
:05:23. > :05:24.explosion in senior executive pay in the public sector, and at that has
:05:25. > :05:27.been allowed to happen, we have massive competition within the
:05:28. > :05:30.public sector as well as the private sector, and that is something I am
