Doctors and dentists will receive a 2.8% pay increase in Wales.

Health Minister Vaughan Gething confirmed he was following recommendations made by a review body.

It follows a decision to do the same in England. Other public sector workers are also seeing increases.

But Mr Gething said the UK Treasury is not providing additional cash for the increase – “so the additional funding needed will need to be found from existing budgets”.
