Reduction in the pay and allow­ance for the Fiji Police Force and the Republic of Fiji Military Forc­es will not be done.

This also includes peacekeeping and rural and maritime deployment.

This follows reports and rumors cal­iming that there was a possibility of re­duction of pay and allowances could be pursued.

Minister for Home Affairs and Im­migration, Pio Tikoduadua said this should lay to rest any rumours or wild and unsubstantiated claims of possible reduction of pay and allowances for Po­lice and RFMF personnel.

Discussion on this have also been en­dorsed by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, Biman Pras­ad.

Mr Tikoduadua further stated that nothing of this sort has ever been con­templated nor will it happen.
