Chief Medical Officer Dr Roshan Parasram has been directed to establish a functional system for public health inspectors to receive overtime payments for specialised services they provide during and after their normal working hours.
High Court Judge Marcia Ayers-Caesar issued the directive in late February as she upheld a judicial review lawsuit over a protracted delay in implementing regulations that established the payment system.
The lawsuit related to the application of two sets of regulations in relation to public health inspectors that were set in 1992 and 2005.
