PASYDY[/B] has entrusted the drafting of a bill to a group of reputable lawyers, with the intention that the long-standing problem faced by indefinite-term employees[/B], regarding the lack of prospects for advancement, should be brought to a definitive regulation.
As stated in a statement, the issue has been repeatedly raised by PASYDY both at the level of the President of the Republic and before the Minister of Finance.
In addition, groups of the Organization have had meetings with all parliamentary parties in order to inform them about the issue in question. All the bodies concerned, it is noted, have expressed their support for the need to resolve the problem, with a view to removing the chronic injustice suffered by 5,500 NRS workers in the Public Sector and another 3,500 in the Wider Public Sector.
The legal advisors of PASYDY, the statement said, are preparing a proposal for a law to amend non-basic constitutional provisions and the Public Service Law, in order to remove the obstacle that exists with regard to the possibility of claiming promotional positions by PSCs, thus launching legal procedures to resolve the problem, without disturbing the unequal balance between permanent and PSC colleagues.
It is noted that PASYDY has informed the Ministry of Finance in principle with regard to the provisions of the Bill under preparation.
As stated, upon completion of the drafting of the Bill, PASYDY will forward it to the Government, so that with its consent it can be sent to the Legal Service for legislative drafting and submitted to the Parliament for discussion and vote.
