answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2014 answer text <p>Grades across the Civil Service are defined by job weight, which is a measure of a job’s complexity and responsibilities. Job weight in the Department of Energy and Climate Change is determined by a job evaluation system called JESP (Job Evaluation for Senior Posts) for the senior Civil Service (SCS) and JEGS (Job Evaluation &amp; Grading Support) at grades below SCS.</p><p>A formal JESP evaluation should be undertaken where:</p><p>· a new post is created and the pay band is not obvious</p><p>· an existing post changes significantly, raising doubt about the pay band</p><p>· posts are on the boundary of different pay bands</p><p>· posts are subject to a grading review</p><ul><li>a pay banding decision is disputed.</li></ul><p>DECC has not undertaken any formal JESP assessments in the past 12 months.</p><p>Grade boundaries and job roles for staff below the SCS are initially assessed by reference to the Department’s grading guidance. Before advertising a new or existing post the recruiting manager should assess the grade of a post using the guidance. Any changes to the grade of a job role must be authorised in local business area by senior managers.</p><p>JEGS is only formally used when the appropriate grade cannot be clearly determined by reference to the grading guidance. In most cases, roles will fall readily into a grade on this basis.</p><p>No central records are held of local grading assessments. One formal JEGS assessment has been carried out within the last 12 months.</p> answering member constituency Hastings and Rye answering member printed Amber Rudd question first answered 29/10/2014 14:33:49 answering member 3983 label Biography information for Amber Rudd

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2014 answer text Last month, the Sri Lankan Appeals Court lifted the temporary suspension on the deportation of asylum seekers and refugees from Sri Lanka. We are concerned that deportations have resumed.

We have made clear that deportations should only be carried out in accordance with Sri Lanka’s international obligations.
