Garment Industry Wages Council to meet by end of the year

The Garment Industry Wages Council is expected to meet by the end of this year after the appointment of new council members by the government.

Wages Council Chairman, Father Kevin Barr said the garment industry wages council was not able to sit and decide on proposed base wage rates for the garment factory workers as the employers’ representatives were not available.

He said this is expected to be resolved soon with the appointment of new council members.
