Vol. 583 No. 3

Public Service Management (Recruitment and Appointments) Bill 2003: Financial Resolution.

I move:

That it is expedient to make provision for the imposition of such charges and the payment of such fees as may be charged by—

(a) a body to be known as the Commission for Public Service Appointments

(b) a body to be known as the Public Appointments Service, or

(c) the holder of a licence from the Commission for Public Service Appointments,

in respect of any service carried out by each of them under any Act of the present session to reform the recruitment and appointment processes of the Civil Service and certain other bodies in the public service and for that purpose, to provide for new management structures to replace the Civil Service Commissioners and Local Appointments Commissioners, to establish the Commission for Public Service Appointments to oversee the implementation and development of those structures in the context of the public interest and the need to uphold the probity of the recruitment and appointment process, to provide for an Office connected to that Commission, to provide for the establishment of the Public Appointments Service as the recruitment and selection body for the Civil Service and other bodies in the public service, to introduce flexibility into the recruitment process by enabling the licensing by that Commission, in addition to the licensing of the Public Appointments Service, of any part of those services to undertake their own recruitment in respect of one or more classes of employees and, generally, to enable licence holders to delegate some or all of their recruitment processes to persons or bodies specified by that Commission from time to time, to enable those services to respond to changes in their recruitment needs and in the labour market, to provide for both permanent and temporary appointments and to provide for promotion processes, and for those purposes take account of the need to maintain, in the public interest, the integrity and probity of both the recruitment and selection processes for those services and to provide for connected matters.

Question put and declared carried.
