Mr. Robert Watt:
They do not operate under our code. Appointments to public positions operates within a code that I think everybody here would accept is absolutely critically important. It has served the State very well. The Public Appointments Service serves the State very well. I would be reluctant to suggest anything that makes it harder for it to deliver on its mandate. We are happy to come back to the Deputy with some data on how long it takes to fill and whether there are outliers there.
