The Public Service Commission is now expected to liaise with the Solicitor General's Office on the next step to take regarding former Labour CEO Brian Singh's case after the Fiji Court of Appeal upheld an earlier decision of the PSC Appeals Board to reverse his termination from the civil service.

Permanent Secretary for Public Service Taina Tagicakibau told Fijivillage News that they have just been informed of the ruling and are awaiting instructions on the matter.

She said it cannot be ascertained at this stage whether Singh would be reinstated or be compensated for the early termination of his contract as CEO.

The PSC Appeals Board reversed the decision of the PSC to terminate Singh's contract on the grounds that the disciplinary proceedings had not been instituted in accordance to Singh's contract of employment.

Singh was terminated after being charged with 19 counts of abuse of office and was later ordered to be reinstated.
