At full council today it was confirmed that our campaign to make sure that staff get paid a decent wage has been rubber stamped. 2500 staff in schools and working for the council will get paid a minimum of £7.43 an hour. For some staff this is a significant pay rise. As Lib Dem councillors we are very proud of the work we have put in to achieve this and now want to push to ensure that as many employers in the County sign up to the local living wage.
