– Govt. will not reverse decisionBy Kiana WilburgFinance Minister, Winston JordanFinance Minister, Winston Jordan, said yesterday that the salary increases for Members of Parliament were necessary for three reasons; to outline an income for Vice Presidents which did not exist before,Wholesale Jerseys USA, to correct anomalies in the payment structure and finally, because the work load has increased.Jordan said, “We inherited a system where the President was receiving a salary of about $2M non-taxable. The Prime Minister was receiving a taxable salary of some $1.5M while the Attorney General,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, the Chancellor and the Chief Justice were receiving $1.6M.“There was no allocation for Vice Presidents; this position did not exist under the PPP. But the senior and junior ministers were receiving the same pay of about $579, 000. What do you notice?”He continued, “It is clear that there are huge anomalies there. The President, Prime Minister and AG are receiving massive salaries and your seniors and juniors are at the same level. Nowhere in the Caribbean does such a system exist.”The Finance Minister explained that for junior ministers, the $579, 000 was increased by 12 ½ percent while for senior ministers it was increased by 50 percent. As for the Vice Presidents,Cheap MLB Jerseys China, he said, they received a 60 percent increase on the $579,000.He noted that the $1.6M salary for the Attorney General was increased by five percent while the Prime Minister’s salary was increased by 10.7 percent.He confirmed yesterday that President David Granger stands to benefit from the increase as his salary will be raised by five percent.The salary increases were published in the Official Gazette of September 25.Jordan said, “I am not sure why people were saying that it was 50 percent increase across the board because it was not done in that way. The increases were calculated based on fixing the anomalies which do not exist in the public service system. “The percentages were also used to widen the gap between the payments so that you can be able to have a scale which differentiates between the various positions. There are also some super ministries which we have now and the work load has increased immensely.”Several agencies and letter writers have criticized the government for increasing the salaries at this time stating that no evaluation was done to show that it is deserved.There have also been criticisms that the salary increase was done at the wrong time,Wholesale Authentic Jerseys Outlet, especially when the government had said that the country’s revenue earners are not performing and that the Consolidated Fund was in heavy overdraft.The government had also stated that major increases for workers in certain public sectors would not be economically feasible at this time yet increases were somehow feasible for their ministers.The Finance Minister insisted that the salary increases were necessary and justifiable.He said,Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys, “There are about 13 senior ministers who got the 50 percent increases. Not 500 or 5000 ministers; just 13.”He then referred to the increases for public servants, reminding that the minimum basic salary of each public servant was bumped up to $50,000, which translates to a 26.4 percent increase for those who earned the old minimum wage of $39,540 and 17.1 percent for over 4,000 public servants earning the current minimum wage of $42,703.He said that this was complemented by the fact that all other public servants receive an additional $5,000 monthly.“So it is nauseating when you read persons saying that the “five” percent increase is measly when this is not the case.”As for the argument that now is not the opportune time for ministerial salary increases, Jordan retorted,Joel Campbell Arsenal Jersey UK, “So when is the opportune time? And who is doing the evaluation of the ministers? The reality is that the people either vote you in or the vote you out based on your performance.“We are saying that these increases are necessary. We are here to do the work of the people and make the systems work. I maintain that these changes were necessary as the President had pointed out before. We are not going to change our decision. “Over the weekend, Political Activist and University Professor, Dr David Hinds contended that Government’s recent decision to increase the salaries for Members of Parliament (MPs) will go down as its “second, big misstep.”Dr. Hinds said that the decision should have been influenced by a number of crucial social factors.He said that the fact that it was not, suggests “political naivety, arrogance, insensitivity” or all of those.He made the case however that it is not the increase that is fueling the public outrage but rather, “the politics and the principle which underpin it.” He believes that there are three crucial factors at work.作者: xuejun0xq5 時間: 2017-11-8 06:37 標題: Belstaff Suomi 19797 Moncler Gueran Suomi

On the 16th occurred the first hurricane of the season. It began in the morning with heavy south wind and sudden fall of barometer. At noon the wind whipped round to the northeast and blew with indescribable fury, filling the air with snow-drifts, and blotting out the view of everything even a few feet distant. The anemometer registered sixty-five miles,Moncler Mari Suomi, and then broke down. The noise of the storm,Parajumpers Herr Harraseeket, as heard from the house,Whistler Parka Sverige, was as though on shipboard. It must have given way but for the ice walls around it.
On the 20th,Moncler Himalaya Suomi, Lieutenant Greely issued a circular letter,Patrice Bergeron Pelipaita, calling attention to the order that all should be up for breakfast. Kislingbury and Dr. Pavy took exceptions to this,Parajumpers Gobi Dame Jakke, and the latter declined to lecture in his turn.
The next evening occurred a beautiful and unique auroral display,Moncler Branson Suomi, the chief features of which were many broad bands of pure white passing through the zenith and reaching to the east and to the west horizon,Expedition Parka Sverige, which blended, twisted,Hanoverian Suomi, and curlGoogle Links:

The next morning the weather became warm, beautiful,Moncler Marmelade Suomi, and delightful,Luna Yd Suomi, the sun bright and sky clear,Edmonton Oilers Lippikset, and there was no wind—surely a bit of sunshine in a shady place.
They took advantage of this to bring out hand-gear,Moncler Vosges Suomi, foot-gear, bags,Dame Moncler Jakker Eulalia, and rubber blankets to dry, everything having been damp or wet for nearly a week. Lockwood and Brainard got but a few short naps after supper, for it was necessary for one of them to be awake to insure their getting up at the right time to take “double altitudes,Parajumpers Gobi Sverige,” etc. They secured a complete set of observations,Moncler Mabel Jakke, thirty-six in all. A few hours later,Menn Moncler Jakker Sport, Lockwood and Brainard started to make the ascent of the cliffs and of the height beyond. They gained a considerable elevation, and stood on a little plateau overlooking both sides of the promontory, the sea,Canada Goose Menn Yorkville Bomber, and a large extent of mountainous country to the south thickly covered with snow.

During his stay in St. John’s,International Trials Polarquilt Takki Suomi, Lieutenant Lockwood wrote a letter to his mother,Moncler Karak Suomi, in which he gave the following account of the city:
“St. John’s is a queer and forlorn old place; everything is antiquated,Kanadanhanhi Hybridge Lite Takit Suomi, slow,piumin Moncler Marmelade, and behind the times in 65 every respect. The few hotels are more like third-class boarding-houses; a livery-stable is not to be found in this city of thirty thousand.

It is charged that ignorance and poverty are what this church most thrives on,piumin Moncler Shawl, and it is certainly a thriving church here.
