(a) This role is generally undertaken by a person in a human resources related role within the agency where the employee works. The number of case managers can vary depending on the number of employees requiring case management.
(b) The Public Sector Commission only keep records and reports on registered redeployees. It does not maintain data in relation to surplus employees, internal redeployees or for employees on the unattached list. This information is only available at an agency level and will vary considerably over time. Provision of this detailed information would require considerable time, which would divert staff away from their normal duties, and it is not considered to be a reasonable or appropriate use of government resources to provide this information.
(c) If the Member has any specific queries about a specific agency these should be directed to the appropriate Minister.
