Service For Tahiti

The last stage in a long strug gle by French Polynesia’s local fonctionnaires (public servants) to be placed on the same footing as those sent out from metro politan France was announced in the Journal Officiel de la Polynesie Francaise on May 9.

The Journal Officiel (the equivalent of the Government Gazette in British countries) pub lished a table from which the local public servants can see at a glance how they will be clas sified if they choose to join a proposed integrated public service for the territory.

The public servants have four months from May 9 to choose whether they will join the integrated service or remain in the local service.
