My Department is committed to ensuring that a highly skilled and motivated workforce is in place to meet business needs and uses workforce planning to identify and assess these needs for all locations. My Department undertakes a broad range of services in meeting its business objectives, the delivery of which is supported by staff across administrative and specialist grades.
