Commissioners have been identified to conduct an inquiry into Guyana’s Public Service, according to Minister of State Joseph Harmon.
A statement from the Ministry of the Presidency said Harmon yesterday revealed that President David Granger will soon sign the instruments for the Commission of Inquiry (CoI) to appoint the commissioners to get the work started.
The statement noted that the inquiry is in keeping with an announcement made by Granger on the occasion of the Guyana Public Service Union 92nd anniversary in June, when he promised to establish an inquiry into the conditions of service, wages, training, salaries and other issues of public servants.
The Ministry statement said Harmon and a team yesterday visited a section of the Public Service Ministry where the actual hearings of the commission will take place. “Even though preparatory works are still ongoing, Harmon predicts that those works will be completed soon as the intention is to have that commission begin hearings no later than August 2015,” it added.
