Salaries for Reserve troops sent to banks today

Amid com­plaints from mem­bers of the TT De­fence Force (TTDF) Re­serves over the non-pay­ment of salaries, the De­fence Force has promised to de­liv­er cheques of out­stand­ing salaries to banks by to­day (Wednes­day).

In a me­dia re­lease, the TTDF Re­serves ac­knowl­edged the de­layed pay­ment, which they at­trib­uted to “ad­min­is­tra­tive is­sues” en­coun­tered dur­ing the pro­cess­ing of pay­roll doc­u­men­ta­tion.

“The lead­er­ship of the TTDF Re­serves recog­nis­es the in­con­ve­nience and hard­ship that de­layed pay­ments may cause and moved to ad­dress the mat­ter as pri­or­i­ty up­on iden­ti­fy­ing the is­sue.”
