The Yemeni government on Sunday approved the payment of December salary for all public servants in all Yemeni governorates, even governorates which are still run by the Houthis and ousted President Ali Abdullah Saleh. 

The government approved the payment of December salary on the basis of the lists of December 2014, directing to remove the names added  to these lists by the putschists. 

Ghamdan al-Shareef, a secretary of Prime Minister told al-Sharq al-Awsat newspaper that the Houthis and Saleh still refuse to give the lists of public servants in the governorates run by them.
