In the wake of Lord Irvine of Lairg's big pay hike doe sanyone think that the setting up of one totally independent body to oversee all Public Sector Workers pay increase's would be a good idea? and a rule that there should be a maximum and a minimum yearly increase?

Why not refine that idea a bit more and make the max and min amounts in real money rather than percentages? I guess Lord Bandit from North of the border Irvine's 2.9% is a lot more worth having than 2.9% of my salary. (which is supposed to be the ceiling on public sector pay this year). I'd like to see us all get a flat thousand pounds increase rather than a pittance for us and a whopping increase for the rest of Derry Irvine's merry gang at Westminster. The rest of the money might actually go on services for the taxpayers who cough up year after year.
