Government representatives and union bosses sat late into the night to battle out a settlement in the civil servants strike that is threatening to lay the country low.
This comes after President Jacob Zuma met with the ministers involved in the negotiations recently and instructed them to go back to the negotiation tables immediately.
President Zuma has illustrated the seriousness of the situation by instructing the strike breakers to find an immediate solution.
It is alleged that government increased its wage offer to eight percent, and raised its offer for a monthly housing allowance to 800 rand, but nothing definite has been announced.
