BOFEPUSU Withdraws Lawsuit

This was in a matter against the Director of Public Service Management (DPSM), the Attorney General (AG) and the Public Service Bargaining Council (PSBC). BOFEPUSU had approached the court after the employer pulled out of negotiations citing the need for verification of BOFEPUSU membership figures, and whether they allow the union to bargain following the departure of Botswana Public Employees Union (BOPEU) recently.

Last week Friday the parties agreed that the PSBC convenes on January 26, 2016 to mutually give progress to the matter. Therefore the matter was withdrawn.
