Just start later than the FT like we do now - there’s only going to be a few PT made up to FT in each office - if any
Some people think all PT are getting FT - no way that’s gonna happen

The agreement is clear. Pre 22 contracts are under no obligation to agree changes to their contract hours. You should be shown how your hours will be planned as part of the change. For post 22 contracts it's not so clear in the agreement what has been agreed regarding their contractual hours.
