1. I have never attended a meeting outside the structures of the Government to determine the deployment of personnel in public sector positions.
2. None of the appointments to public sector positions were discussed and determined during my appearance at any forum that is private and external to the structures of Government. Appointments to public sector positions are dealt with in terms of the Public Service Act, Public Service Regulations and where applicable the SMS Handbook.
