THE Policy Council, according to two Education members, should tackle any problem with civil servants at their department.

Deputies Wendy Morgan, the deputy minister, and Hunter Adam have released a joint letter in response to the education management review carried out by Dr Trevor Robinson. ‘The only issue we have with Dr Robinson’s report is his statement that the new Education board must take the report forward.

‘The Policy Council is deemed to be the employer of all civil servants. If questions are raised in relation to civil servants the new council must grapple with the problems and consequences.’
