The senior appointments at HS2 Ltd include a new Interim Finance Director, and a permanent Finance Director who has been appointed and will start in early 2018. Work is underway to appoint a permanent HR Director. In addition, there have been a number of other senior appointments in both teams including Finance Managers, Senior HR Business Managers, a Head of Employee Relations and an Interim Director of Organisational Development. Some of these posts are new roles and some have arisen as a consequence of HS2\u2019s relocation to Birmingham.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3926", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Paul Maynard"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Blackpool North and Cleveleys"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Paul Maynard"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-09-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-09-19T13:49:24.827Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-09-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "High Speed Two: Redundancy"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 12 September 2017 to Question 7698, on High Speed Two: Redundancy, whether he has plans to publish the (a) new governance arrangements and (b) senior appointments.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/410", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jon Trickett"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hemsworth"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jon Trickett"} ], "uin" : "10187"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/759821", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/759821/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
