Updated; Labour warns that people will be replaced if they are not qualified for top jobs

Updated - Adds PN reaction - People in government agencies who did not deserve and were not qualified to hold top posts would be replaced by suitably-qualified personnel in a new Labour Government, Opposition spokesperson on public administration, Helena Dalli, said today.

This, she said, would happen by non-renewal of contracts and redeployment.

Speaking at a press conference and often referring to the situation at the Malta Transport Authority, Mrs Dalli said Labour would continue to insist on merit in appointments, and the government should conduct an audit of the competence and qualifications of those holding top posts at the Transport Authority and other agencies.

She said that a number of employees had been unjustly removed from their posts and left for weeks on end in offices doing nothing, in what amounted to psychological violence. 

Replying to questions, she was unable to say how many such people were involved, but said that political allegiance was often a factor in their predicament.

In contrast, she said, there were some employees who had been promoted twice in three months.

Others were receiving responsibility allowances which they did not deserve. Such allowances could amount to €630 per month.

A Labour government would work to rectify injustices, she said, through the redeployment of people according to their qualifications. Those who held posts for which they were not qualified may not have their contracts renewed. 

She also said that a new watchdog system will be created to monitor new appointments.

PN REACTION

In a statement, the Nationalist Party said Mrs Dalli had revealed what Joseph Muscat was planning should he become prime minister.

It was clear that if he was in power, Dr Muscat would ‘make heads roll’ but he was keeping silent about his plans.

The PN noted that when Mrs Dalli was a parliamentary secretary in the Sant government, that government was found guilty of political discrimination against Angela Callus, who in 1998 was not reappointed Director of  the Department for Women’s Equality. Renee’ Laiviera, who used to advise the Labour Party on women’s rights, was appointed instead.

The PN noted that Mrs Dalli’s declaration followed on that by Gino Cauchi who had said that the PL was speaking to people who wished to work at PBS when Labour was in government.

This was confirmation that the PL had not changed, the PN said.

Hossam HElwani. Don't you remember who had said that the PN government has to work with the people who it can trust, i.e. nationalists ? No mention of meritocracy was made. His name was Austin Gatt ! Dr. Muscat is saying that merit will be the yardstick used to appoint people in responsible positions. And they will be made accountable too !

Joseph Aquilina: Just as Lawrence Gonzi said that he had learnt from Dr. Sant's mistake ( when he called an election after 22 months ), so Dr. Muscat too has learned from Dr. Sant's mistake for allowing certain diehard nationalists to remain in control of very sensitive positions, which they used to put spokes in the labour government's wheel !

Joseph Aquilina

Oct 25th 2012, 20:31

I know several people who do not support PN but still managed to get government jobs!! Do you know Why? BECASUSE PN ALREADY WORKS ON THE PRINCIPEL OF MERITOCRACY!! This news article just mean that lejber will fire anyone just to make space for those who are redder then the rest!!

Great - instead of PN canvassers "running" the country, we will get PL canvassers. What's the difference?

Peter Murray

Oct 25th 2012, 18:19

But character doesn't have a grade so how will prospective employers know?What do you suggest are guiding principles therefore to establish and determine who is "better suited for the job"?How did you obtain your job -by the employer recognising you were "better suited" than a more qualified applicant perhaps?This designation-application claim of yours is impractical and totally implausible

Mr Edward Caruana Galizia

Oct 25th 2012, 18:38

Silly me, I thought all employers interview people before employing them to see what they are like, if they will reflect the company's image and ethos, and if they are able to answer tough questions and that employers contact the references to ask for second opinions.

I guess in the PL's world, a CV is all it takes,regardless of whether or not that CV reflects how that person really is.

Mr Edward Caruana Galizia

Oct 25th 2012, 17:58

A degree does not mean you have brains. Look at some of the people who leave university in Malta. They can't even write properly. There is also experience and character that influences an employer's decision along with things like work ethic, problem solving abilities and creativity. These things cannot be measured.

@ J P Fava
Darkest of all without any doubt were the sufferings endured during the days of the MLP regime - the intimidation, terrorism, beatings, bombings, home invasions and ransacking, desecrations and ransacking of churches, destruction of the offices of Malta' s only independent newspaper, and more - all perpetrated by gangs of thugs loyal to Mintoff & KMB - the "elite" of the MLP/PL.

True, but then again, writing properly doesn't mean you have brains either.

Mr. Azzopardi,

Actually I am quite into astronomy. The red planet, yes, it fascinates me. I am well read and like to keep adjourned about various subjects.

Every great achievement starts from a dream. Logically, I will not spare any intellectual energy to discuss national matters with individuals voicing shallow comments. But a suggestion is due....dream, think big for your country. Grow up

Anton Grech

Oct 25th 2012, 19:53

@ J P Fava - Meritocracy and MLP/PL in the same sentence? A classic oxymoron. Iddaħħaqniex! Who do you think you're kidding? In the M:P/PL lexicon, meritocracy = MLP/PL affiliation. Refer to Jason Micallef's remark, ""Ħa nkunu gvern tal-laburisti". That remark combined with MS. Dalli's announcement are ominous. We have been warned - make way for the MLP/PL of the 1970s and 1980s.

Probably Mr Fava when we were defending Democracy in this country you were not even born ! Anyway when I was young I day dreamed for years until I came face to face with a harsh reality.People being beaten and shot at by their fellow maltese.It was very bitter to swallow then Mr Fava.My Red Planet was a Dream that one day the colour Red changes to the colours of the Rainbow.It never did!Shallow?

You areobviously referring to the current system of "who you know, not what you know" Ms. Dalli is talking about meritocracy. What;s more she is entitled to talk about meritocracy. It is the only way to stop disasters like Arriva, Mater Dei, Arms, etc.

Mr Edward Caruana Galizia

Oct 25th 2012, 18:03

We already live in a Meritocracy. She is talking about setting up a system which will judge who is best for a job and who isn't regardless of what the employer thinks of the employee's character, work ethic, stamina, creativity and aptitude. A system that can easily have it's own political agenda.

A Vella

Oct 25th 2012, 17:28

Because "qualified" is very hard to quantify. And can only be quantified after the appointment. This is just a smoke screen and a signal to all those being promised heaven on earth that LP means business in their vote catching strategy. Then once there who cares how the country will perform!

Jean Pierre Fava

Oct 25th 2012, 16:24

People like yourself have hate in their words. You want to see a divided people. Shame!You should base your assessments on the administration of the last quarter of a century. Many top managers are being paid big money ( from the taxes we pay) to hold positions for which they are not qualified. Dr. Dalli said that this will be rectified for better administration and for the good of the country.

J Martinelli

Oct 25th 2012, 15:54

Where did 'meritocracy' go in the 70s, 80s and briefly in the 90s?
I have been trying to find ONE appointment of a known Nationalist during Socialist administrations. I don't mean lower jobs, I mean important positions of some influence.
Mr (not Dr) Dalli would be most unwise to make much of meritocracy because some of his friends would fall flat on their faces.

PPL open your mind and move on.

Joseph E Briffa

Oct 25th 2012, 16:43

@Mario..those were exceptions. Just mention the long list of heads of departments who were mediocre at best and still were appointed because of their political colour; this meant they had to be carried by their deputies who were passed over because of their political beliefs.This also happened in the case of the armed forces as well as in parastatal bodies. Some meritocracy.

Jean Pierre Fava

Oct 25th 2012, 14:49

Dr. Dalli's comments reflect the need to rectify mismanagement within the public administration, government entities and agencies and giving due respect to tax payers' money. This can never be achieved if appointments are solely based on loyalty rather than competence in the particular sectors for which the respective Departments and entities are responsible.

Mr Edward Caruana Galizia

Oct 25th 2012, 18:08

The problem is that this watch dog system can easily have it's own agenda and can fiddle around with people's jobs and careers regardless of their aptitude for the job. This sounds less like promoting meritocracy and more like a threat to Nationalist supporters as far as I am concerned.

I almost make a mistake voting for them.

Oct 25th 2012, 15:06

Right - heads do automatically resign in a change of government, however, that does not mean that if the person concerned was qualified and did his/her job well he/she should not be retained in that position unless he/she is a hard-liner well known for party affiliations. Many well known Labourites were kept in their position during PN governments - maybe it is also a matter of trust.

Thats the qualifications you need under the PN government, Labour is stating they will do away with these qualifications and people will get positions by their experience and proper qualifications, Which is the correct way to do it, not like Gonzi who puts people in top jobs because they are part of his little band of yes men/women, Just take a look at what we have in parliament,

Ftit wara meta staqsejt kif ser nibqa kienu staqsewni xi hbieb ghandi. imma ma kelli l-hadd. Dawk huma l-kwalifiki li gejt mitluba SABIH.
