Prior to recommending any candidate for appointment to this position the Courts Service will make all such enquiries that are deemed necessary to determine the suitability of that candidate. Until all stages of the recruitment process have been fully completed a final determination cannot be made nor can it be deemed or inferred that such a determination has been made. Should the person recommended for appointment decline, or having accepted it, relinquish it, or if an additional vacancy arises the Courts Service may, at its discretion, select and recommend another person for appointment on the results of this selection process. Review and Complaint Procedures under the Code of Practice for Appointments to Positions in the Civil and Public Service If a candidate is unhappy following the outcome of any stage of a selection process, they can either: 1. Request a Review of a decision made during the process Or 2. Make a Complaint that the selection process followed was unfair A candidate can follow either one of the two procedures in relation to the same aspect of a selection process, but not both. Where a review of a selection process has taken place under Section 7 (as detailed below), a complainant may not seek a further review of the same process under Section 8, other than in the most exceptional circumstances that will be determined by the Commission for Public Service Appointments (CPSA) at its sole discretion. There is no obligation on the Courts Service to suspend an appointment process while a Review or Complaint is being considered. However, the CPSA expects that, where possible, the Courts Service will intervene in cases where it finds an error is likely to have occurred. Requesting a Review under Section 7 A request for review may be taken by a candidate should they be dissatisfied with an action or decision taken by the Courts Service. The Courts Service will consider requests for review in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 of the Code of Practice for Appointments to Positions in the Civil and Public Service published by the CPSA. When making a request for a review, the candidate must support their request by outlining the facts they believe show that the action taken or decision reached was wrong. A request for review may be refused if the candidate cannot support their request. The Informal Review will consist of a desk-based examination of any available information in relation to the recruitment process and the decision taken regarding the candidate’s application. The outcome of the Informal Review Process will be communicated to the requester in writing. • A request for Informal Review must be made within 5 working days of notification of the decision and will normally take place between the candidate and a representative of the Courts Service who had played a key role in the administration of the selection process. • Where a candidate remains dissatisfied following any such informal discussion, he/she may adopt the formal procedures set out below. A request for Formal Review must be made within 5 working days of either the notification of the selection decision, or the notification of the outcome of the Informal Review process. Any extension of these time limits will only be granted in the most exceptional of circumstances and will be at the sole discretion of the Chief Executive. • The candidate must address his/her concerns in relation to the process in writing to the Personnel Officer of the Courts Service (via email to careers@courts.ie, or in writing to Personnel Officer, Human Resources, 15/24 Phoenix Street North, Smithfield, Dublin 7), outlining the facts that they believe show an action taken or decision reached was wrong. • The Formal Review will be conducted by a person who is completely independent of the selection process • The outcome of the Formal Review must generally be notified to the candidate within 25 working days of receipt of the request for review. If the investigation does not produce a decision within this time, the Courts Service must keep the candidate informed of the status of the review and the reasons for the delay.
