Mr. Watt stated in his opening remarks and in the briefing to the Minister that he was aware the Government had recently endorsed open-ended secondment arrangements to the university sector for senior civil servants. That was put to Martin Fraser of the Department of the Taoiseach and he responded:

I do not know what he is referring to. I assume he is referring to former Secretaries General who are seconded to the third level sector. I do not know whether they are open-ended, to be perfectly honest.

To what was Mr. Watt referring?
