National Employment Programme (NEP) has broken silence on status of the programme

An official of the National Employment Programme (NEP) has broken the silence about recent questions about the status of the programme.

Rumours have swirled that the programme was being downsized following a number of dismissal letters handed to NEP workers since the start of the New Year.

Director of the NEP Emmeline Honore told State Radio on Tuesday the programme is undergoing restructuring.
