I'm not convinced Rowley, this states that "the CCSC therefore has the
exclusive right on behalf of the BMA to negotiate a new contract for
consultants". Note the word "negotiate"; this simply means they can
negotiate a contract (which they have done), it doesn't imply that a
rejected contract can or will be imposed upon us. Clearly they wish to have
a mandate for this, otherwise why seek a referendum on the issue? Also I
note the page was updated on 2nd October 2002; I suspect it may have been
there for much longer.
