BBC pay offer rejected

Unions have rejected a below inflation pay offer from the BBC at a meeting with Corporation management.

The BBC has put forward a two-year offer consisting of 3.5% or £700, whichever is the greater, in year one, and 2% for 2008.

This is in response to the unions claim of RPI plus 3% with a minimum rise of £1,000 for 2007.
