The Fiji National Provident Fund is diverting available resources into preparing funds for pensioners.

FNPF General Manager Prime Services, Tevita Nagataleka confirms funds will be made available to pensioners by the end of the week.

“We are putting all efforts in terms of preparing all payments. This is to ensure that the balance of the 4,500 pensioners is ready so they can receive their money by this Friday. This is of top priority to us and we ensure that all manpower available is utilised.”

Nagataleka adds the glitch which resulted in the delay for Pensioners pay out under the new Pension scheme was beyond their control.

“Actually the delay we had experienced is not really a fair reflection of the amount and tremendous effort the staff and management has put in to ensure that the payment is made. We humbly and sincerely apologise for the delay.”

Over 4000 pensioners are expected to receive their first pension pay out tomorrow.
