No relevant information.（NCSC staff are not required to report whether they will transfer to civil service posts when resigned.）
|
If there were chances for conversion, the number of NSCS staff who failed to do so
|
Not applicable.（All NCSC staff are employed under fixed term contracts. They have to undergo the usual civil service recruitment procedures before transferring to civil service posts, and are employed on civil service terms.）

Note: While the requirements for NCSC staff may vary with changing service needs during the year, we plan to engage a number of NCSC staff in 2010-11 given anticipated workload in particular on the administration of funding schemes. The figures for 2010-11 are estimated on this basis.
