Cabinet has decided on how public sector salaries will be paid

COLOMBO (News 1st) - Sri Lanka's Cabinet of Ministers has granted approval to pay the salaries of non-executive state sector employees on time and to delay the salaries of executive-grade staff by a few days, considering the current financial situation of the government.

The Department of Government Information in a statement said that the 2023 revenue proposals have been implemented, and because revenue generation would take some time, the government has decided to manage its expenses from January 2023.

And thus, the cabinet has approved to delay the salaries of executive-grade staff by a few days.
