Wes Streeting has admitted the 'jury is out' on whether there'll be more NHS strikes - despite resident doctors agreeing to a month-long truce in their pay row.
The Health Secretary welcomed the fact the British Medical Association (BMA) has agreed to use August as a 'window for negotiations' as a 'step in the right direction'.
But he warned it 'takes two to tango', adding that the 'jury is out on where we'll get to by early September'.
In their ongoing dispute over pay, resident doctors - formerly known as junior doctors - staged a five-day strike last month to bring fresh disruption to the NHS in England.
Mr Streeting has said talks with the BMA could lead to improvements in the working lives of resident doctors, but he has repeatedly said there is no more money for pay.
