Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai seemed to be backing out of a wage freeze proposed by Finance Minister Tendai Biti who is also secretary general of Tsvangirai’s Movement for Democratic Change. Biti proposed the freeze to cut government’s wage bill which consumes 70 percent of government revenue. Tsvangirai told parliament today: “I do not know whether the government has adopted such a policy of wage freeze. There is no such policy. The government is committed to upgrade salaries of civil servants.”
