Finance Minister Namgay Tshering says the pay revision for State-Owned Enterprises will depend on if the boards of these entities utilise their operational and capital investment subsidies for a pay hike. This was revealed when the minister was responding to Opposition Leader Dorji Wangdi’s question today on why the employees of State-Owned Enterprises being public servants were not included in the 6th Pay Revision Report.
Article 30 of the Constitution mandates the Pay Commission to recommend to the government, revisions in the structure of salary, allowances, benefits, and other emoluments of civil servants, elected leaders, and other public servants among others.
