Illogical Page Structure and Redirect

It makes no sense to have a page for the UK's "First" Civil Service Commissioner and not have a proper page for the UK Civil Service Commission (just a redirect page). Someone should reinstate a proper UK Civil Service Commission page and include the "First Commissioner" information within that. I will do that in a few days if nobody objects.

History

It would be useful to have some history of the Commission. In particular, how it lost the recruitment function and perhaps certain other functions. Seadowns (talk) 22:42, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It hasn't lost the recruitment function. From its own page, "Civil Service Commissioners ... chair open recruitment competitions for the most senior posts in the Civil Service. The Commission has a compliance and capability monitoring programme to provide assurance that selection for appointment to the Civil Service at other levels meets the statutory requirement." https://civilservicecommission.independent.gov.uk/recruitment/ 185.13.50.214 (talk) 09:05, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
