![]() “The reporter, Mr Nasik Swami, incorrectly asserts that I stated that more than 30,000 civil service positions will be readvertised and that those employees must then reapply for their jobs. However, I never made any statement to that effect. My comments to Mr Swami were exclusively regarding the new open merit-based criteria that any new applicants must meet when seeking to fill vacant positions in the Civil Service. I made no comment on the readvertising of any positions currently held by civil servants, as that is not the plan of the Ministry of Civil Service. The reporter also incorrectly asserted that three options would be offered to civil servants who did not meet merit based criteria. These options, “phasing out or retirement, replacement of those appointments without merit and transfer within ministries”, were never a part of my discussions with Mr Swami and I never made any statements to this effect. This highly irresponsible reporting by the Fiji Times has caused undue panic among civil servants and is a blatant attempt to undermine the good work Government is doing to reform the Civil Service and empower our public servants. An immediate retraction should be issued clarifying these errors to prevent the proliferation of misinformation and a further disservice to the Fiji Times readership.” ![]() "The comments attributed to the relevant committee members in The Fiji Times article, Civil Service jobs to be readvertised: intake on merit on May 12, 2016, do not reflect Government's policy position towards civil service reform. The Ministry of Civil Service has never planned to readvertise any existing positions or have civil servants reapply for their jobs. While there will be new open merit-based selection criteria, these will apply only to vacant positions in the civil service. Civil servants and any potential applicants for civil service positions are encouraged to read the open merit recruitment and selection guidelines" - DADA Aiyaz Khaiyum WILL GOVERNMENT WHIP AND MASOOR GOONDA BOY NOW CALL UPON MIDA CHAIRMAN ASHWIN RAJ TO WHIP FIJI TIMES FOR ALLEGEDLY SPREADING FALSE INFORMATION AND CAUSING PANIC AMONG CIVIL SERVANTS AND THEIR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS? Fijileaks: The self-confessed GOONDA BOY could tell the nation if we have also TWISTED HIS COMMENTS BELOW, POSTED ON HIS FACEBOOK. It beggars belief how a scumbag of his ilk could be appointed Government Whip, Chairman of Justice and Law, and now PAC chairman. Yes, it can happen in Aiyaz Khaiyum's FIJI: |
