Government consultation on minimum service levels during strikes
The Government is consulting the public on introducing minimum service level (MSL) regulations that would require some doctors and nurses to work during strikes.
The proposal is that most essential and time-critical hospital services should be covered by MSL regulations. This consultation will help to inform decisions on whether hospital services should be covered and, if so, which hospital services, the appropriate minimum service levels required, and whether any health services outside hospitals should be included.
The consultation closes on 14 November
