The Ministry of Public Services, Provincial Councils and Local Government issued the circular extending the retirement age of public servants up to 65 years today.
Secretary, J. J. Ratnasiri said that accordingly, the retirement age of public servants will be extended to 65. However, this will not apply to those serving in the armed forces.
However, the Sri Lanka Administrative Services Association previously opposed the extending of the retirement age of public servants to 65.
The association said in a letter to the Secretary to the Ministry of Public Services and Provincial Councils that the retirement age should be 62 instead.
