 Responding to today's rejection by the British Medical Association of the government's NHS Pension Scheme proposal, Dean Royles, director of the NHS Employers organisation says:

"Talks are the best way to secure a final deal. The NHS scheme talks are complex involving over a dozen unions so it's therefore welcome that, along with a number of other unions, the BMA will continue the discussions.

"It is essential that everyone now hammers out an agreement. Let's concentrate on securing the best sustainable deal, not on industrial action which will always be damaging to patient care."
