*There were a number of staff who went through a specialised establishment process with the Public Appointments Service(PAS) following a European Court ruling as a result of a number of contracts of indefinite duration. All of these passed the required qualifications and vetting procedures for positions filled by PAS. While these positions were not through an open competition they were sanctioned and appointed by PAS.
