With the national budget approaching, both Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar and Finance Minister Davendranath Tancoo have failed to provide a definitive timeline for when public servants will receive the promised ten per cent wage increase.
When questioned by Guardian Media yesterday, Minister Tancoo refused to answer. Prime Minister Persad-Bissessar, meanwhile, offered only that, “God willing,” the promise of the increase will be delivered, adding that Government is searching for the necessary funds.
