August 26, 2024 (MLN): Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has directed to submit a final plan for the transfer of the ongoing projects under Pak PWD to the provinces and related departments at the earliest, the Information Ministry reported.

He gave these instructions while chairing a review meeting regarding the dissolution of the Public Works Department in Lahore today.

The Prime Minister said the financial package given to the outgoing employees due to the dissolution of Pak PWD is not for those staffers against whom corruption charges have been proved. 

He further instructed that final proposals regarding the dissolution of Pak PWD should be submitted to the Cabinet.

The Prime Minister, however, directed the implementation of the age relaxation proposal to provide re-employment to hardworking and honest people with short tenure of Pak PWD service.

The meeting was given a detailed briefing regarding the final stages and legal aspects of Pak PWD's dissolution.
