Major Healthcare (doctors in secondary care)

Doctors across Northern Ireland will stage two 24-hour stoppages at the end of June. Consultants and SAS doctors will run Christmas Day cover from 7:00 on 25 June to 7:00 on 26 June, and resident doctors will hold a full 24‑hour walkout from 7:00 on 29 June to 7:00 on 30 June. The action is over pay erosion and is contingent on ongoing strike ballots.
