WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHIEF MINISTER
BY R.G.LE HÉRISSIER OF ST SAVIOUR
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 9th SEPTEMBER 2014
Question
Does the public service reform programme entail a reduction in the numbers of permanent employees and, if so, what targets have been set for the next 5 years and how do they impact on the different pay grades?
Answer
The Public Sector Reform is designed to ensure a sustainable and affordable public service that provides essential services to Islanders efficiently and effectively.
As services are redesigned and e-government gathers pace, there will be an impact on the skills and staff required to deliver services as they develop and change.
The Reform Programme does not set targets for staff numbers. It is the responsibility of Departments to work within the budgets and staffing parameters agreed by the States Assembly in the Medium Term Financial Plans.
