DEPUTY R.G. LE HÉRISSIER OF ST. SAVIOUR
REPORT
In approving R.14/2008 ("Succession Planning in the States of Jersey") the Chief Minister's Department recognised that succession planning had been less than adequate when it came to preparing local persons for senior appointments in the public service. While R.14/2008 now supports this policy, it is essential that a clear implementation programme is proposed so that, as occurred previously, the situation does not drift and that, yet again, we find no sustained attempt to develop and appoint locally based persons. Hence the proposal that a properly formulated plan be presented to the States in one year's time.
Financial and manpower implications
There should be no additional costs as such a plan should be seen as an integral part of a progressive human resources policy.
