Deputy Chairperson, the SA Police Service, SAPS, employees who are entitled to payment of salaries and allowances have been paid up to 29 February 2012. All correctly completed overtime claims which form a proper charge against state monies have been paid. Salary increases in the form of cost of living salary adjustments are paid across the board to all employees.
If there are for some reason officials who did not receive an increase, such exceptions are identified based on complaints received, as well as through system control processes in the form of exception, reporting and reconciliation. Such salary adjustments are effected programmatically, with defined approval processes being in place. Thank you.
