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

Proposed Appointment to University Research Post: Department of the Taoiseach

Mr. Martin Fraser:

We do. There is a policy and everybody has terms of appointment that govern what happens when the term is up. It is somewhat imprecise at the level of individuals and what they must do. Dr. Holohan was doing this and people have to try to find something else to do. We do not want people in a post forever and that is not good. Neither do we want to put people in a position where they are disincentivised from serving in senior roles because they cannot plan their career.
