Motion Text

That this House supports the Unison claim for ú4,000 per annum London Allowance for local authority workers; recognises that the cost of living in London and fringe areas is substantially higher than the rest of the country; calls on Government and local authority employers urgently to negotiate with the unions to resolve the claim; and further calls on the Government to invest in housing for affordable rent to meet the desperate housing needs of public sector workers and others in housing stress.
