My Department received two applications for re-instatement, following retirement on grounds of ill-health, with prior notice, since 2004. The applicants were placed on a Central Resource Panel for redeployment to another Department/Office as my Department had no suitable vacancies at the grades concerned.
The applications for re-instatement were granted in line with Para. 11.4 of Superannuation Handbook and Guidance Notes – Established Civil Service Scheme.
One of the applicants has been redeployed to fill a vacant position at the relevant grade in another Department. The second applicant remains on the Central Resource Panel as no suitable vacancy at the applicant’s grade has arisen to date.
