All Civil Servants are eligible to apply for competitions to fill vacancies in Civil Service grades through open competition or through confined interdepartmental competition, subject to satisfying the relevant eligibility criteria.

Eligibility for Departmental competitions is a matter for the Department concerned, subject to compliance with legal and other requirements relating to Civil Service recruitment and promotion competitions.
