The Presidential Remuneration Review Commission extends the deadline for written submissions from stakeholders in education, all government departments and public entities
The Presidential Remuneration Review Commission (the Commission) today announced that it was extending the deadline for written submissions from all stakeholders in all government departments and in public entities to Monday, 31 August 2015.
Initially, the deadline for written submissions on matters that the Commission is required to investigate was set for 30 June 2015 for receipt of submissions from the Education Sector and 31 July 2015 for the rest of the Public Service Sector and the Public Entities.
However, the Commission has since been inundated with numerous requests for the deadline to be extended in order to accommodate those parties whose submissions have not yet been received.
In this regard, the Commission today announced that it was granting a blanket extension for all submissions to be handed in by 31 August 2015.
Headed by former Chief Justice Sandile Ngcobo, the Commission was appointed by President Jacob Zuma to inquire into remuneration and conditions of service in the Public Service and Public Entities as listed in Schedules 3A and 3C of the Public Finance Management Act, 1999 with educators receiving priority.
Issues that the Commission is required to investigate, in accordance with its terms of reference, include matters such as delivery of basic education, recruitment, promotion and retention of educators, performance management, job evaluation, grading and fiscal sustainability of the wage bill.
Submissions to the Commission are required to be detailed and comprehensive and any views or opinions expressed should be substantiated as far as possible with verifiable facts and data. The submissions may be hand-written or typed and must be sent to the Commission by no later than 31 August 2015 via email, post or hand delivery to the Commission’s Lynwood office, on the 6th Floor, SITA Building, Perseus Park, 117 Priory Road, Lynnwood in Pretoria.
