§ Alun MichaelThe following table details the secondees currently working in this Department and the other information requested.
The term "secondee" refers to a person "borrowed" from an organisation outside the Civil Service for a period of between three months and three years (exceptionally five years), without affecting employment status. During the secondment period the secondee remains an employee of the parent organisation but is expected to abide by the Defra Staff Handbook and the Official Secrets Act. Secondees are expected to undertake the full range of duties attached to the post, including the provision of drafts for PQs if required.
At the end of the secondment the secondee would return to the parent organisation.
