Message from Premier on Cyber Incident

Premier and Finance Minister David Burt expressed his gratitude today: "I extend my thanks to the dedicated Government Public Officers who have been tirelessly crafting solutions to address the challenges posed by our recent cyber-attack. I also want to express my appreciation to the local banks for their unwavering commitment in collaborating with the Ministry of Finance to ensure timely payment for our public officers."

Arrangements have been made to ensure that our financial assistance clients and public officers who are paid monthly will be paid at the end of the month.

The Government can also confirm that arrangements are being made to progress vendor payments, albeit there may be slight delays. Government fees and taxes can be paid online or at the cashiers by cash or cheques.

Premier Burt continued, "We are facing certain challenges, but the government remains operational and actively working to enhance our service capabilities. I want to express my gratitude to all those who have dedicated countless hours to our critical operations and continue to do so. We are committed to swiftly restoring service delivery. Thanks also to the public for your patience and understanding."
