temporary position which has no prospects for permanent placement.

(d) The background to this case,. outlined above,

clarifies that. City Services made use of Templine in

appropriate circumstances and using appropriate

procedures.

Documentary evidence

As you will be aware, arid as was explained in the meeting

of 5 August 1993, documentary evidence of the kind you,

are seeking is not available because arrangements for.

short-term temporary positions are not handled in

writing, except for appointments through Templine. You

have all relevant documentation for that case. The

processes used have been detailed in the background

sections above and in discussions

use of S116A

You stated that, in your opinion, S116A of the Public

.Service Act should have been used to arrange the temporary transfer of an officer into the vacant AS06 (PN12551) position, pending permanent filling of the position- As was-explained on 3 and 5 August 1993, only one suitable officer was. potentially available for HDA. As this person :was already acting at the AS06 level and as he was occupying an equally important and similar position within DUS, neither he nor City Services considered it in the best interests of the Department to seek a S116A transfer.

Conclusion

I trust that the details given above will satisfy any concerns outstanding after the IRC hearing on 3 August and your meeting with .the Department on 5 August.
