<p>Permanent Secretaries are subject to the same performance management regime as the rest of the senior civil service and their performance is assessed, including against their objectives, by the independent Permanent Secretary Remuneration Committee. The objectives for all permanent secretaries for 2011-12 covered the following areas: setting direction, delivering results, developing people and living our values. As part of the Government's commitment to greater transparency, all Permanent Secretary individual objectives were published for the first time in December 2012.</p> |
