Read MoreFreezing public sector pay in response to UK budget pressures would be "the wrong answer”, the first minister of Wales says.
It follows reports the UK government is planning such a move.
Mark Drakeford said: "The notion that the costs of dealing with this pandemic should be heaped onto the shoulders of frontline public servants seems to me to be exactly the wrong answer to the experience we've gone through together.
He added: "It doesn't make sense to me in sheer economics to extract purchasing power from the economy at a time when you want the economy to recover."

“We will face some very difficult dilemmas,” he said.
“But they will be dilemmas of the UK government's making and at the moment my efforts are focused on saying to the Chancellor, ‘please don't go down that path, it's neither fair to the people involved, nor does it make sense economically’.”
