State Attorneys Call Off Strike Action

State Attorneys who have been on strike since last week to press demands for better conditions of service would resume work on Wednesday.

A statement signed by Ernest Genadzie, Secretary of the Association of State Attorneys, said the leadership was calling on members to call off the strike.

"The leadership of State Attorneys wishes to inform members that based upon understanding reached with the government over our grievances, we hereby call upon them to call off the strike action and resume work on 22nd August, 2001."

The association thanked the Attorney General and the government for their "tireless efforts and contribution" in resolving the impasse.

It also thanked the Ghana Bar Association, for its contributions to the resolution of the matter.
