Default Re: Emergency supplies as Intervention MURs?!?

So I thought that maybe this year I'd give Good Friday a miss; Apparently, they can get locums for bank hols & sundays for £26/hour, whereas I expect to be paid double-rate...
How can an emergency supply be a MUR? I'm sure the society would class this as a core service.

Give it a miss Zo!
