2 - Reasons

(2) Department funds should be spent on remunerating all department workers rather than being concentrated on one or few employees. (3) Removing bonuses enables an increase to Government wages.

3 - Bonuses
Public funds are not to be used for the provision of bonuses.

Veto

This bill has been vetoed. Bonuses are a good way to motivate employees. While I agree that the system needs to be reformed to become more fair and less wasteful, it should be done internally through the executive.
