As a former trade union organiser who represented workers in the Rehab Group, this is not the first time that group has ignored a Labour Court recommendation. I hope it is the last.
I ask our guests from the Rehab Group and the NDA how confident they are that the 2025 minimum target of 6% will be met. Is it ambitious enough? On one hand, you want to set an ambitious target but there is no point if you are not going to meet it On the other hand, if you are not ambitious with targets, you are selling people short.
