Rockson Nelson Dafeamekpor, the Majority Chief Whip in Parliament, has assured members of the Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association (GRNMA) that government will factor in their conditions of service in the mid-year budget.
According to him, the Majority Leader in Parliament, Mahama Ayariga, has given his word that he will make sure that government factor in the implementation of the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) .
“We will do something in the mid-year budget for you. I can assure you. The Majority Leader, Mahama Ayariga, cannot assure you on this issue and go to sleep,” Mr Dafeamekpor said on TV3’s KeyPoints on June 14.
“In the next ten days you will hear something from government,” he added.
It is recalled that members of the GRNMA embarked on a nationwide strike to press home their demand for implementation of approved Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). Among others, the CBA provides for payment of their license renewal, uniform allowance and deprived area allowance.
