THE National Trade Union Centre (Natuc), Joint Trade Union Movement (JTUM) and the Federation of Independent Trade Unions and NGOS (FITUN) claimed earlier this week that the National Tripartite Advisory Council (NTAC) is dead.
They reiterated that they withdraw from NTAC last month because their participation in it was sacrilegious to the objectives of the labour movement. In a statement, on Thursday, all three groups claimed their decision was vindicated by a recent statement by Planning and Development Minister Camille Robinson-Regis when she said their resignations from NTAC were accepted, thanked them for their service and the council s work continues. Robinson-Regis is the current NTAC chair.
