A bill on a new pay scale for government employees has been finalized, the Audit Bureau announced on Wednesday.

On its official Facebook page, the Audit Bureau said the bill was handed over to the General National Congress for approval.

"The new pay scale aims to achieve social equity and stability in the country." It stated.

No further details about the proposed highest and lowest salary were given.

Many public sector departments have demanded the government to increase salaries for their employees in order to cope with the high prices of commodities and services.
