NATION-BUILDING

'Danger pay' finally tenninated THERE is probably going to be an outcry from those privileged civil servants who have been recipients of the 'northern dispensation package', otherwise known as 'danger pay', for many years. But they are going to have to come to terms with losing this perk, which was grossly unfair to the rest of the civil service. 'Danger pay' commenced under the old regime, as a measure to placate whites in particular, who were sent to the northern regions of the coun try where Swapo was active in those days. We were, however, pleased to note this week that the Cabinet had decided to terminate this package with imme­ diate effect, since the Cabinet itself expressed the view, and quite correctly so, that the package only benefitted a cer­ tain section of the civil servl.ce. We understand that the Cabinet adopted this decision some time after assuming office, but due to a widespread outcry on the part of civil servants who threatened to resign, the idea was shelved for the time being. - It may even'be the case thatthe Government will have some resignations due to this move, and under the circumstances , it is a Col{rageous decision.
