Written Answers - Departmental Staff.
The situation is that transfers to provincial locations are arranged in accordance with an agreement reached with the staff side at general council under the conciliation and arbitration scheme for the Civil Service. An officer's placing on the transfer list for a particular location is fixed in order of date of receipt of the application in the Department concerned. Whenever the relevant placing on the transfer list is reached, the officer will at that stage be considered for transfer.
