The Regional Working Group on Civil Service and Integrity addresses a wide variety of policy issues related to achieving sustainable civil service reform and higher levels of integrity in Arab countries.
At the GfD Initiative’s Launching Conference, participants agreed on a first set of policy issues to be considered. During the First Meeting of the Initiative’s Steering Group on 27-28 April 2005, these were refined into a “Framework for Policy Dialogue” which will serve to guide the initial Stocktaking Phase.
The Working Group on Civil Service Reform & Integrity is chaired by Mr. Rachid Talbi El Alami, State Minister for Economic and General Affairs of Morocco, and co-chaired by Mr. Fernando Ballestero, Ambassador and Permanent Delegate of Spain to the OECD and Mr. Omer Dincer, Undersecretary of State of the Prime Ministry of Turkey (see Arab Chairs & OECD Co-chairs).
