It is recognised that much needs to be done; but recent progress has been rapid with the introduction of commercial operating standards, a central recruitment hub backed by an Assessment Centre, and more attractive remuneration for commercial specialists. The system of commercial standards drives adherence to policy, and departmental and functional governance ensure our commercial behaviours are on-market and sustainable.</p> answering member printed Lord Young of Cookham question first answered 27/04/2017 11:57:19 answering member 57 label Biography information for Lord Young of Cookham
