The difficulty with the benchmarking body is that we do not know the rationale behind the recommendations it ultimately made, which is a pity. This issue will not be resolved through a once-off payment. The problem will not disappear, which is why review of the relative position of qualified people in the public and private sectors must be ongoing if it is to be relevant. A once-off bribe to public servants over the next two years will not suffice. We must reward useful public service while dealing with the issue of low pay.
