The Cabinet has outlined a strategy to improve the participation of the Civil Service Commission (CSC) in formulating and implementing government’s policies. The members of the Cabinet recognised that a lack of a defined role of the CSC in the policy formulation and implementation processes, created a number of difficulties for the government in matters regarding the Civil Service.
The Cabinet finalised the strategy after discussing on plans proposed by a review committee.
The plan emphasises the importance of continued participation of and collaboration with CSC in formulating and implementing government’s policies. Moreover, the strategy aims to seek the view and advice of CSC in matters related salaries, allowances and working hours of civil servants as well as changes to government structure.
