He said: “Next week, we have an Economic Management Team meeting on Tuesday, specially dedicated to the issue of national minimum wage to be chaired by the Vice President. “For anybody to say that this government is stalling or playing games, will be uncharitable, because, we have done what we are supposed to do. She stated, “Everything is on course but we need a definite figure from government and of course we have to carry the States along. So, we need those figures so that we can conclude on the figures we include in our report.”Pepple was confident that the new minimum wage will be ready, by this month. Asked when it will be ready, Pepple said, “This month at least I expect our report will be ready, we are submitting our report to Mr President this month.”
