PHILIPSBURG, Sint Maarten ? Minister of Finance Hiro Shigemoto says that salaries were sent to the banks on Thursday afternoon and agreements were made with two of the banks where the majority of the civil servants have their accounts to have the salaries credited to their accounts today January 28, 2011.
The other banks due to the smaller amount of civil servants banking with those financial institutions, they may process payments quicker due to the small number mentioned banking with them.
This is the first month that the payrolls from the former Federal Government departments are being run in the payroll system of the Government of Sint Maarten.
From 10-10-10 until December 31, 2010 these payrolls were still implemented by a company which the former Federal Government had a contract with to provide payroll services.
"Naturally all efforts were made to have as accurate a payroll as possible given the circumstances, however, as in any transition period there could be discrepancies for which we apologize.
"We are asking those who notice any discrepancies to please note these down and bring them to the attention of their respective department head or the Salaries and Wages Department or Mrs. Cassandra Wilson of the Finance Department in order to have these corrected as soon as possible.
"The Government thanks civil servants for their cooperation and understanding in this matter as we go through this transition together and overcome some of the challenges that we confront on a daily basis in moving forward as a country," Minister of Finance Hiro Shigemoto said on Friday morning.
