From Checkpoint, 5:12 pm on 16 July 2021

The strikes are off and nurses are set to vote on the government's revised pay offer.

After hitting a deadlock in pay talks, nurses had agreed to three strikes over the next few months.

But late this afternoon the NZ Nurses Organisation announced the first strike is off and it will take the government's pay offer to members to vote on.
