Healthcare workers are expected to receive the promised $210 million ex-gratia payment next month (November). That’s according to Minister of Finance Colm Imbert who confirmed that the payment will be made to about 20,000 healthcare workers and that it will be paid in cash.

He gave the assurance during yesterday’s, Oct. 4, Budget debate in Parliament.

“Over 20,000 workers in the public health sector…they will get their money in cash. They will get their money next month—that’s how they’re going to get it,” he said.
