August 3, 2010 10:17 am
Discussions regarding the
wage hike have been successful, claims the Federation of University Teachers
Associations. The Secretary of FUTA, Rohan Fernando said that at the meeting
held yesterday with the Higher Education Minister, it was agreed that a new
circular will be issued concerning the wage hikes.
However, if the said circular
is not in action by the 16th of this month, the university officials
will go ahead with the resignation from their posts.
Rohan Fernando also stated
that the important issue was not presenting the proposal to the Treasury, but
to get the approval for wage hike.
