Angola: Cabinet Council Meets Wednesday

15 April 2008


Luanda — The Cabinet Council will analyse Wednesday in Luanda the political, economic and social matters in an extraordinary session to be chaired by the President of the Republic, José Eduardo dos Santos.

In its latest meeting, the Government's collegial organ approved the first adjustment of wages of the Public Service for 2008, estimated at 8,78 percent, according to a General Programme of the Government, taking into account the expected and accumulated inflation.

The adjustment had into account the increase of nominal salary and the reestablishment of the power of purchase of salaries due to the difference between the accumulated inflation and the one expected in the State General Budget (OGE) for 2007, reads a press release from the third ordinary session of the Council of Ministers.

On the occasion, the Angolan Executive passed the regulation of law on animal sanitation that regulates the application of fines in importation of living animals, and the contracts of diamonds prospecting in Chamunua, Cafulu and Lumaca areas, located in the provinces of Lunda Sul, Kuando Kubango and Lunda Norte.
