It seems that the Government have instructed the "independent" Pay Review Body to recommend that the Nurses pay be capped at 2% for 2023-2024. Difficult to see what their strategy is here unless it is one to cause as much damage for the next Government to inherit.

The NHS Pay Review body is independent.

Remits for 2022/23
Secretary of State for Health and Social Care’s remit letter


1.21 The Secretary of State wrote to us on 30th November 2021 to commence the 2022/23 pay round. The Secretary of State noted it was vital that planned workforce growth is affordable and within the budgets set and stated their view that there is a direct trade-off between pay and staff numbers.
