Gov’t moving to resuscitate public service appellate tribunal

Government is looking to resuscitate the Public Service Appellate Tribunal, which has been defunct over for two decades.

Minister of State Joseph Harmon made the announcement yesterday during a post-Cabinet press briefing.

Former Auditor General Anand Goolsarran, in an entry in his Accountability Watch column in Stabroek News in September, 2012, had stated that the tribunal has not been in place since August, 1995.
