Attorney General Anil Nandlall, SC, says that the government has not violated a High Court order regarding the deduction and remittance of membership dues to the Guyana Teachers’ Union (GTU).
The Department of Public Information (DPI) said that speaking during his weekly programme ‘Issues in the News’ on Tuesday, Nandlall said that two letters were dispatched to the GTU President Mark Lyte requesting a list of the union’s membership so that the dues can be deducted and remitted.
He said that the first letter was issued on March 14 last year by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Education, Shannielle Hoosein-Outar, requesting the verified and certified documentation of the union’s membership.
