The rumored strike by nurses today is not happening.
Acting Minister for Health and Medical Services Filimoni Vosarogo made the reassurance following a meeting yesterday between the Ministry and the Fiji Nurses Association.
Vosarogo says everything was laid on the table, historical, systematic and legacy issues of the past that needed consideration, urgent or otherwise.
The Acting Minister says staff of the Ministry and the Ministry of Finance will ensure that nurses reflect their new pay backdated to August 1st and are accurately reflected in their pay slips.
He says any anomalies will be addressed by the Ministry in the subsequent pay.
Finance Minister Professor Biman Prasad is urging nurses to report any anomaly that they find in their pay.
The parties were reminded that consultation and continued dialogue should be done periodically and consistently.
