Rejected petition Put a cap on consultant fees at £1000 per day.

Now that it has come to light that NHS Test and Trace has spent staggering sums of money on consultants, with some being paid £6,600 per day, it is time to say enough is enough!

More details

NHS nurses have been given a measly 1% pay rise despite being on the frontline of the worst health crisis in a generation. Consultants for this new agency are getting filthy rich and despite the marketing bluster have not been able to make a compelling case for their fees. A staggering amount of money is being wasted on consultants and key to getting this under control is capping their fees.
