Yet No mention of the disengaged staff? What business has BPE with pensioners? There is a mix up in this info.

I had gotten information that Ptad wasn't responsible for payment of nitel entitlement so I mailed Ptad and the attachment shows the response they sent.

Information i just got has it that Ptad is not responsible for payment of nitel outstanding entitlements, and my question is please which agency is responsible and whats the status of the payment. Please i need someone to confirm or query this information, thanks.

please what's the latest update for this payment?
