Amongst the so called and much derided Quangos cut last week by the ConDems was the Civil Service Appeals Board.The CSAB was last reviewed in 2007 where the need for its role was assessed in line with the requirement for employers to provide an internal appeal process against dismissals. The view at that time was that the CSAB should continue to play an important, independent role.
It seems that this government has decided otherwise. So along with mere inflationary pay increases, and our long standing Compensation Scheme, we have now lost a right to appeal dismissals. Of course we have... as, "we are all in this together", after all!
