I attended a meeting of Bury Council last night. The two main debates were on the police and the issue of the pay for Council employees. It has generally been agreed nationally that because of the economic situation there would be no general increase in pay this year. Labour proposed that negotiations restart with the Unions. The motion was defeated.
