Khaberni - Deputy Khamis Hussein Atiyah, a member of the Initiative party, directed a parliamentary question to the Minister of Public Sector Development, according to Article (96) of the Constitution and Article (123) of the House of Representatives' internal regulations, about the reality of public sector appointments and the statements made by the President of the Public Service and Administration Authority concerning the long waiting period for employment.
Atiyah requested clarification on the bases on which those statements were made, and the fate of the accumulated employment requests stored in the "stockpile," pointing out the necessity to review the current appointment policies and enhance transparency in managing government human resources.
The parliamentary question included the following points:
1. What are the reasons that led the Head of the Public Service and Administration Authority to state that the waiting period for appointment in the public sector might reach up to (73) years?
2. Were those statements based on scientific foundations and studies? And what is the fate of employment requests in the "stockpile" that reached about (480,000) requests by the end of 2023?
3. Has the efficiency of the recent appointments made through the "stockpile" been evaluated compared to those made through open advertisements?
4. How many appointments were made in the past three years through the "stockpile"? And what were the bases for these appointments?
5. Is there effective monitoring of the appointment mechanism through the "stockpile" to ensure transparency and integrity?
6. Is there an intention to return to the "open advertisement" system in all government jobs without exception? And what are the justifications for that?
7. Please provide me with a detailed comparison between appointment through the "stockpile-rotation" and appointment through "open advertisement," in terms of efficiency, fairness, and equal opportunities, and indicate the fate of "stockpile" graduates who will be over the age of (48) by the end of 2027, based on the government's plan to end the "stockpile" by that year.
