GOOD NEWS for National Service Personnel(NSP)
Mr Ambruce Entsiwah Junior, the Acting Head of Corporate Affairs of NSS, has assured in an interview with Citi FM that outstanding January allowances will be paid by the end of this week, with February and March payments to follow.
Mr Entsiwah also explained that the NSS has already paid November and December 2022 allowances and that the organization will ensure that personnel are paid whenever allowance approval is made, despite the current economic challenges.
But these things should not necessarily affect us, because prior to this year we submitted our budget for the year, and we have had approval from Parliament.
However, Mr Entsiwah emphasized that the approval of any increase in allowance was subject to permission from the Ministry of Finance and Cabinet, and that the NSS will only be able to implement an increase in allowance if it was affordable for the state.
“The board cannot give the approval without the explicit permission and approval from the ministry of finance, that is the level the discussion has reached
It’s our hope that we will get approval from the ministry
When the ministry also gets the approval from cabinet we will be able to implement what the state can afford to pay”.
