TO CALL OFF THEIR STRIKE WHILE NEGOTIATIONS CONTINUE.

The NDC UK & Ireland Chapter wish to add its voice to Christian council, Peace council, Chiefs and Statesmen in Ghana to appeal to the doctors to call off their strike while negotiations continue.

Recently we have been monitoring media speculations, accusations and counter- accusations and would like to call for ceasefire and allow patriotism to prevail.

We are please with Government's willingness and commitment to carry on with negotiations to find amicable solution to this impasse.

Members of UK & Ireland Chapter will like to appeal to the doctors to respect the Labour law 2003, Act 651 and call off their strike. Bargaining with the lives of Ghanaians is regrettable.

Parliament should enact a law so that public sector workers who go on strike forfeit their salary just like it happens here in UK.

We would like to call on all public sector workers to use all available avenues to resolve their grievances instead of resorting to strike actions.
