PUBLIC Utilities Minister Barry Padarath says an issue between the Water and Sewerage Authority (WASA) and the Public Services Association (PSA) over promotions and staffing arrangements has been resolved by both entities.

He made that comment in response to a letter sent by PSA president Felicia Thomas to acting WASA CEO Jevan Joseph on this matter.

In a signed letter dated August 6, Thomas told Joseph the union objected strongly to a directive issued recently by him which indicates that all proposed promotion and staffing arrangements receive prior approval from his office before submission to WASA’s Human Resources Division.
