Government through the Finance ministry has vowed to address wage concerns by medical interns in the next few weeks.
This comes hours after pre-intern doctors run to the High Court seeking permission to file a representative suit against the Ministry of Health and the Attorney General for allegedly refusing to deploy them.
Reading the Shs52.7 trillion budget estimates for the financial year 2023/2024, Finance minister, Matia Kasaija revealed that in the ending financial year, Shs22 billion has been allocated to clearing arrears for medical intern doctors including senior house officers.
He further urged them to remain calm.
