GPSU withdraws bid for injunction against Health Ministry over salary deductions

The Guyana Public Service Union (GPSU) has withdrawn an application for an injunction it had sought against deductions being made by the Ministry of Health to the salary of Linden nurses who were part of strike actions earlier this year.

The nurses had been pushing for the removal of Linden Hospital Complex (LHC) Chief Executive Officer, Rudolph Small. 

According to a press release yesterday from the Chambers of the Attorney General (AG) by which the Ministry was represented, the union withdrew its application on Wednesday after conceding to arguments the AG  had advanced, that injunctions could not be granted against the State.
