Derby junior doctors take break-time test case to court A test case could have a "dramatic" impact on the NHS and junior doctors, a court has been told.
A group of doctors claims Royal Derby Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust did not ensure they had proper breaks.
The High Court heard the staff should get a half-hour break for every four hours they are continuously on duty or be paid double for the time.
NHS lawyers said this could cost the trust £250,000 and open up claims from junior doctors across England. BBC News
