Popular Post webfact Posted June 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 26, 2022 Parliamentary officials can now have their service time extended, after they reach their mandatory retirement age, initially for four years and then to 10 years, under an amended service regulation published in the Royal Gazette Friday. The extended service program will be limited to those whose skills, expertise or knowledge are needed in parliament and which cannot be easily replaced. Another requirement is that they must have a clean performance record and have never been the subject of an investigation into a gross disciplinary violation.

Is it either/or, or all of the above that's needed? I mean does it apply to an MP with a particular skill set, like fetching stuff, roll-over and sit, but having no knowledge or expertise besides finding Mom's house when necessary? In any case, it is a needy parliament indeed that has to rely on dinosaurs in their dotage... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grandpa Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I think that this is related to the civil servants who serve Parliament and has nothing to do with extending the time of MPs! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 The trough is not empty yet and the swines are not ready to leave anytime soon ............ a failed state and I assume that the electorate was - again - not asked (as if it would have mattered)! Every country has the government it deserves - I was told at school back in the day. Not too sure if this still applies .......... but then, who am I to ask?

Yes that's the way I read it as well. I do wonder why it doesn't apply elsewhere than just in Parliament? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
