Parliament seeks ways to end strike

They agreed that the Botswana Federation of Public Service Unions (BOFEPUSU) should continue talks with the Directorate of Public Service Management (DPSM) to explore a mutually agreeable settlement to the 'No Work, No Pay' dispute. A communique from Parliament said MPs backed the three percent salary increment offered by government and accepted by unions.

However, the legislators want the increment distributed on the principle of equity without undue distortion of the current salary structures.
