NIS pensioners have not received the last budget increase
Dear Editor,
This is an open letter to the Minister of Finance. Are you aware that N.I.S retirees have not been paid the increase mentioned in your last budget presentation, i.e. 10% across the board? What is the delay? The previous budget had staff receiving the increase on October 2016 yet retirees were given this in December 2016. Was that a Christmas Gift?
