The requested information falls under the jurisdiction of respective Executive Authorities as human resources management is a decentralised function across the Public Service. Section 3(7)(a) and (b) of the Public Service Act of 1994 provides individual Executive Authorities with comprehensive responsibilities and obligations related to the department's structural and organisational arrangement as well as powers and duties in recruitment processes. These include the setting of employment criteria and determining job criteria, such as requisite qualifications. Furthermore, Regulation 70 of the Public Service Regulations, 2016, provides that a Head of Department shall keep a record of each employee and each post on the establishment under the information requirements issued by the Minister. The Minister for the Public Service and Administration establishes the overarching frameworks and guidelines that shape recruitment and structural organisation within various departments.
As employee profiles change all the time from month to month, each Executive Authority will be required to verify and provides clarity on such matters.
