We need answers from NIS
DEAR EDITOR,
We need answers from the National Insurance Scheme (NIS) regarding payments of senior citizens’ pension arrears for 2011 – 2019 checks with the Georgetown Office have yielded no explanations, except the consolation that several people are still awaiting such arrears payments for last year’s minimum pension arrears are still waiting . Would the Chief Executive Officer or General Manager (acting) please say who made the decision not to have the arrears paid? How many people are affected? Is a particular category being targeted, and if not, are certain pensioners randomly selected? Should pensioners now forget about increase arrears?
