Ms Carol Boate:

I have eight staff at the moment. When I commenced, I decided that rather than fill the posts that were vacant, I would try to learn from the experience of the first three years in the office what skills we needed and what staff we were retaining and not retaining. The vacancies are on the administrative side. I put in a business case to the Department to restructure the posts and that was prioritised. I received approval for that, so I will now recruit to fill those posts. I have tweaked them a little bit to make them more suited and to make sure we have all the skills we need in-house.
