Chief Secretary Farley Augustine has issued a warning to his secretaries, telling them that when he is given the authority to increase their numbers, he expects that within nine months they either produce or be pruned.
Speaking at a media conference yesterday, a day after he was sworn in for a second term, Augustine said, “I will be giving every secretary I appoint just nine months to start to prove yourself.
“If in nine months, they don’t prove themselves, I’m just removing you and putting somebody else. Because at the end of the day, when the delivery doesn’t happen, everyone looks at the Chief Secretary. I am not secretary of all I survey, but I am secretary of all secretaries that I appoint.”
