(a) Premier’s Circular 2005/08 excludes from its six monthly return of consultants reporting on the provision of functional advice for agencies to act on such as organisational reviews. As such, it is not clear to me why this particular consultancy was included and I am taking advice on this matter.
However, in response to the Member’s request, the services provided by Price Consulting included structural and job design activities, recruitment and selection services and JDF and classification services. There was no report prepared by Price Consulting.
