The Minority Caucus on Parliament's Committee on Employment, Labour Relations and Pensions has expressed strong concern.

This concern is about the late payment of non-salary allowances for Ghana Prisons Service officers.

A statement from February 23 referenced a letter from the Prisons Administration.

That letter, dated February 17 2026, confirmed these allowance arrears.

The caucus called on the Finance Ministry to pay these allowances without further delay.

Prison officers are awaiting these specific payments.

The lack of payment affects staff welfare within the service.

This issue highlights financial challenges faced by some public sector workers.
