Public Accounts Committee

Section 38 - Agencies Remuneration

11:10 am

Mr. Jim Nugent:

I must emphasise that, unfortunately, our staff are not public servants, and we did not fully take on board that in a recruitment process-----In a private company, there is nothing unusual about looking at your existing executive team and giving them the opportunity to compete. That is essentially what we did.
