CSA express concern about
running of November pay roll with October figures
Kumasi, Nov. 19, GNA-The Civil Servants’ Association (CSA)
has expressed concern about the failure of the Ministry of
Finance and Economic Planning to advise the Controller and
Accountant General Department on the implementation of the
November Salaries.
The Association said, “We want to express our disagreement
with the current situation and to humbly appeal to the
Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning to halt running of
the payroll of Civil Servant based on October figures.
“And to direct the Controller and Accountant General to
begin to test run November salaries on the revised
placements and corrected distortions, to reflect the
agreement in the Memorandum of Understanding.”
These were contained in a release signed by Mr
S.Y.A.Chigabatia, Executive Secretary of CSA and issued to
the Press in Kumasi at the weekend.
“In our view this directive to the Controller will confirm
that the government remains committed to the agreement
reached in the Memorandum of understanding and will defuse
the distrust and suspicion that is highly mounting among
civil servants that the government is out once again to
breach the confidence and trust that has always
characterised our relations”.
It said if their submissions are disregarded and the current
effusions manifest into labour unrest then the Government
should hold itself blameable.
The Agreement specifically stated, among other things that,
the November 2006 salaries for Civil Servants would reflect
the outcome of the revised placements and correction of
distortions for the Civil Servants on the Government
Universal Salary Structure (GUSS).
The Committee tasked to carry out the task of review of
placements and correction of distortions, membership of
which included the Civil Servants completed their assignment
on October 31 and submitted its report.
