Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Matters relating to the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform: Discussion

Mr. David Cagney:

The default position is they go if they are interested in it. The only circumstance where they would not go is where there was a clear disciplinary issue or a process in which they were involved. We would not foist that type of situation on another manager. The system was designed in co-operation and consultation with HR managers across the system so they kind of own it. To date they are very happy with it.

There are two other categories which we will address shortly, the higher executive officer and the assistant principal officer and we are likely to have a variation of the IT mobility scheme that Mr. Watt talked about plus an application-based system, most likely for the assistant principal officer.
