Under the terms of the JNCTRE Agreement, all allowances (including Instructor scales) other than the Sleeping-in Duty Allowance, have been increased in line with STPCD’s allowances and should, therefore, be increased by 6.5 per cent in England and 5 per cent in Wales with effect from 1 September 2023.

Establishments in Wales should note that as allowances and instructors’ scales were also increased part-way through the year by an additional 1.5 per cent, backdated to 1 September 2022 in Wales, the cumulative effect means that the allowances are the same in both England and Wales for 2023.

The Sleeping-in Duty allowance should be increased by 3.88 per cent from 1 April 2023, in line with the headline percentage pay increase agreed by the NJC for Local Government Services for 2023-2024.
