Civil servants who banked with BSP yesterday did not receive their salary.
The Ministry of Finance and Treasury (MOFT) confirmed that technical issues with the new banking interface system delayed payroll payments for civil servants, a statement by the government communications unit (GCU) yesterday said.
The transition to the new system resulted in salaries earmarked for BSP accounts being held up, while ANZ and BRED account holders received their payments successfully, the statement said.
The MOFT has assured affected civil servants that the issue is not related to cash flow problems but rather a banking system glitch.
According to the facilitating bank, delayed payments will be processed by today, Friday, October 24, the GCU statement said.
The MOFT apologises for the inconvenience caused and appreciates the understanding of affected civil servants, the statement said.
