I think we have to describe this as a challenge the clerk has taken on and has asked all of his colleagues across the public service to take on.
In terms of concrete plans, at this point he's looking for all of us to look at what we can and should be doing and to personally become engaged in the problem. We shouldn't wait until it happens four or five years later. We should start right now.
For example, he's gone out and spoken at university campuses. He wants us to do the same thing, with senior leaders going in. You shouldn't leave it to the human resource specialists alone to try to recruit the cadre of future public servants. You should go and personally get involved. If you're a scientific manager, you know which science schools are the best and where the best students may be coming from. You need to go and talk to them about careers in the public service. He has really put the emphasis on leadership across the public service in terms of renewal.
Will there be specific programs developed and specific initiatives to respond to certain niches where there are particular problems? I am sure there will be, but it's still a process under development.
