In response to an
article in The Nassau Guardian of Monday 27th
November, 2006, captioned ?Passport office faces strike threat? the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs notes that any overtime worked during
the course of the quarter ending 31st September, 2006
will be paid as is normal on the regular Government payday for
November.
There is in fact no irregularity in payment as
suggested by the newspaper?s ?source? for the article. There is
therefore, no apparent basis for the threat of industrial action.
