local agreement
Explanation:
"LOCAL AGREEMENT ON LONG SERVICE LEAVE"
http://www.southtees.nhs.uk/UserFiles/pages/5017.pdf

"These “local agreements” will not normally be recorded or referred to in this section.

In the absence of any “local agreements” these policies and procedures will be deemed to automatically apply to staff employed within Barnet’s Community schools. If a Community school negotiates a variation this must be through the school’s normal negotiation and consultation process involving staff and trade unions and recorded as a “local agreement” for future reference."
