Little faith from a senior doctor's union, that members will accept their latest pay offer

Health New Zealand's latest settlement offer, includes salary increases between 3.5 and 11-percent depending on experience, and provides retention funding incentives.

Dalton says there hasn't been bargaining as Health NZ has stuck with their position from the start, leading to a frustrating conversation.
