Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka has confirmed that all Cabinet Ministers have agreed to the proposed 20 percent pay cut, which is expected to be tabled at the next sitting of Parliament.
Rabuka had earlier announced that a 20 percent pay cut for all Ministers, Assistant Ministers and Members of Parliament will be put forward.
He says he has already discussed the proposal with his Ministers, and they have agreed to the move.
He adds that the formal paper is yet to be presented, as the proposal will first come as a Cabinet paper before being submitted to Parliament for consideration.
Meanwhile, the Prime Minister has also announced that the Government will provide direct relief to bus operators to ensure fares remain stable and the Government will also subsidise diesel costs for Energy Fiji Limited to ensure stable and uninterrupted power supply across the country, keeping our homes, businesses, and essential services running.
