Under current policy, when a public servant changes positions, he or she must have been re-evaluated within the previous five years. If an employee does not change positions, he or she does not have to sit a new test. We have decided that because of the high scores for exemptions, there is no need to administer the tests again.
We are ready to carry out further studies to put together a reasonable sample and verify if those who were exempted have maintained their proficiency level. We talked about this type of sampling. It could include those who have just entered retirement. I can inquire to see what has become of those exemptions. I do not know if this can be done, but we are ready to do so if that interests the committee.
