NASS salary structure declared illegal as HoS seeks stoppage of implementation

 The Head of Service, Dr Folasade Yemi-Esan, has sought for immediate stoppage of implementation of Special Consolidated Salary Structure ( CONLESS), approved for civil servants in the  National Assembly in 2018.
She said the processes that resulted in the current salary structure of civil servants in the National Assembly were faulty,  illegal and unsustainable .
Yemi-Esan, at a meeting with the President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan; and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, faulted the amendments  made by the 8th National Assembly to effect a consolidated salary structure for civil servants in the National Assembly.
In her view, the National Assembly ought to reverse the salary structure currently being operated on.


Mrs Esan argued that the National Assembly is not different from the core civil service to warrant a consolidated salary structure.
She however, advised that the salary structure like the condition of service be discontinued and reversed for due process to be followed.


If the leadership of the National Assembly gives in to her advice, staff of the National Assembly will cease to benefit from the consolidated salary structure. 
In 2010, the National Assembly effected some changes in line with the condition of service currently being operated hence the salary structure as it stands today.
