Thousands of Government workers could be locked out of healthcare services because their employer has failed to remit their medical insurance deductions, a parliamentary committee has revealed.

More could have lost millions in retirement savings because their employer did not pass on the deductions to the pension scheme, according to findings of a probe carried out by the Public Investment Committee (PIC) of the National Assembly.
