Teachers give authorities three-week respite

By Lakna Paranamanna
The Ceylon Teachers’ Service Union (CTSU) has decided not to resort to any action until June 30, giving nearly three weeks for the authorities to come up with a solution to the salary discrepancy issue.

CTSU General Secretary Mahinda Jayasinghe told The Nation that they had already sent a letter to Education Minister Susil Premajayanth, notifying him about this decision.

“If they fail to produce a solution to this problem by June 30, we will take action,” said Jayasinghe.
The discussions were held on June 10 with the presence of the Education Minister, the Finance Ministry Secretary, P.B. Jayasundera and the officials of the Salaries Commission.
