JOHANNESBURG - The Centre for Development and Enterprise is urging the President to ensure public officials reapply for their jobs.
It's part of the CDE's new report, which calls for only the best available people to be appointed into the public service.
According to the Public Service Commission, there's a shortage of professional and technical skills in the civil service.
The CDE says merit-based appointments should trump cadre deployment. Executive director Ann Bernstein spoke to the eNCA.
