:04:07. > :04:10.weddings that he's in and it's just marred all of our memories

:06:02. > :06:09.We offered a good deal and we need to explore now

:06:10. > :06:11.with the Aslef negotiating team and talking to our members

:06:12. > :06:14.to understand what we need to do differently to get this

:06:15. > :06:17.It was very, very close, it was just marginal the number

:06:49. > :06:57.At hospitals in east Kent with equipment is a struggle,

:07:01. > :07:02.locum doctors, brought in when permanent staff aren't

:07:03. > :07:05.But from Thursday, Government changes to the tax system

:07:06. > :07:07.will see their take-home pay drop overnight.

:07:08. > :07:09.Some locums are threatening to stay at home until

:07:10. > :07:13.I think anything that takes pay away from locums at the moment,

:07:14. > :07:22.We need to support all of them at the moment because otherwise

:07:23. > :07:25.services are going to be unsafe for patients and we can't have that.

:07:26. > :07:27.Staff at the QEQM Hospital in Margate had suggested possible

:07:28. > :07:29.ways to cope with the locum shortage, including

:07:30. > :07:31.cancelling operation and even partial closure of A

:07:32. > :07:34.But the trust management says that won't be necessary.

:07:35. > :07:39.And the MP says locums will come round.

:07:40. > :07:41.There is no other provider out there that will be

:07:42. > :07:43.buying their services, so I think we've got

:07:44. > :07:47.It simply isn't going to happen and I'll be fighting

:07:48. > :07:50.against anything that is going to upset services at QEQM.

:07:51. > :07:53.So far, the trust is looking at rearranging rotas with its other

:07:54. > :07:57.It is also considering upping its local and pay

:07:58. > :08:06.But in a statement it said, we have not considered and are not

:08:07. > :08:08.introducing any partial closures, temporary or otherwise,

:08:09. > :08:10.to the A department of the Queen Elizabeth

:08:23. > :08:30.Sara, is this a particular problem in east Kent?

:08:31. > :08:36.It's certainly not on the east Kent. Trust around the country are bracing

:08:37. > :08:42.themselves. There were reports that some locums are asking for a rise of

:08:43. > :08:47.above 50% to combat the tax changes. One finance director told the health

:08:48. > :08:53.service Journal it was like a Mexican stand-off. There are

:08:54. > :08:59.problems with quickly. They say that it is because of east Kent's

:09:00. > :09:03.relatively isolated position. Because of that, they rely heavily

:09:04. > :09:06.on locums and thus without locums things would get very difficult.

:09:09. > :09:11.them two points clear at the top of the championship table -

:09:36. > :09:39.wet. It brightened up somewhat this afternoon but still a good deal of

:09:40. > :09:45.cloud around. At times during the first part of this evening, some
