No agreement has been set aside by the Government or the Department.<\/p><br /><p>NHS Employers and the British Medical Association (BMA) agreed Heads of Terms for negotiations in July 2013 and commenced negotiations in October 2013, the intention being to conclude negotiations by the end of October 2014. The BMA walked away from those negotiations on 16 October 2014.<\/p><br /><p>As part of negotiations, proposals for a new contract had been made by the management side (employers from each of the four United Kingdom countries). The BMA said it could not agree to these. The Government therefore asked the independent Review Body on Doctors\u2019 and Dentists\u2019 Remuneration (DDRB) to make recommendations.<\/p><br /><p>The DDRB took evidence from the BMA, NHS Employers, the Department of Health and other parties. NHS Employers\u2019 evidence, on behalf of the four UK countries, set out the proposals made by employers in negotiations, illustrating how these related to the jointly agreed Heads of Terms. The BMA\u2019s evidence set out alternative proposals, which had not been made during negotiations.<\/p><br /><p>The DDRB\u2019s report broadly endorsed the proposals made by NHS Employers and made recommendations, identifying some areas where further discussion was needed. The Government invited both parties to return to the table with the DDRB recommendations forming the basis for further negotiations.<\/p><br /><p>The Government, in England, has made clear its desire for the BMA to be involved in work to introduce a new contract. The Government has asked NHS Employers to work on the detailed design of a new contract for introduction in August 2016 and has continued to encourage the BMA to return to negotiations and take part in that work.<\/p>"}
