Motion text

That this House believes that civil servants perform an essential role in the functioning of British democracy and the delivery of our public services especially as the UK renegotiates our relationship with the European Union; notes that public servants covered by the Cabinet Office and Treasury's civil service pay guidance received the lowest percentage pay rises across the public sector in 2018/19 at a range of 1 to 1.5 per cent; notes that Members of Parliament will receive a 2.7 per cent pay rise in April 2019 as recommended by an independent pay review body; and urges the Government to lift the 1.5 per cent pay cap for civil servants and other public sector workers covered by the guidance in the forthcoming pay remit guidance and to introduce an independent pay review body for civil servants whose recommendations would be implemented in full.
