Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, has directed management of the National Assembly to conduct a comprehensive staff audit in the National Assembly.
Saraki?s Chief of Staff, Senator Isa Galaudu in a letter to the Clerk of the National Assembly, Mohammed Sani-Omolori, said the measure is aimed at ?verifying the skills, efficiency and motivation of the employees of the National Assembly.?
The letter dated December 16, 2016, entitled, ?Carrying out a comprehensive human resource audit in the National Assembly? reads in part: ?We have made commendable strides in our continuous endeavour to attain the goals set out in the legislative agenda of the 8th National Assembly.
?We, however, must continue to deploy clear strategies that meet the challenges facing this institution and capitalise on the strengths that we possess.
?Even the best strategy will ultimately fail without the right people in the right places to execute it. Thus, it has become apparent that at this juncture one of the true challenges of the National Assembly is human capital.
?I hereby convey the decision of the President of the Senate that you carry out comprehensive Human Resource audit.
?You should kindly, therefore engage the services of a reputable consulting firm with adequate Human Resources expertise to carry out a complete review and produce a report verifying the skills, efficiency and motivation of the employees of the National Assembly.
?Expected outcome of this engagement is a detailed assessment of the nominal roll, succession plan and furthermore to identify possible vacancies, duplications, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, limitations, and developmental needs of the existing organisational structure of the National Assembly.
?The President of the Senate expects the assessment to be completed within 90 days and progress reports be submitted regularly until completion.?
The Clerk of the National Assembly in a letter noted that a Committee has already been set up.
Sani-Omolori said that a ?tested and trusted? consultant has been appointed to work closely with the Committee.
The Clerk added that the committee has been inaugurated with the following terms of reference:
* To verify and ascertain the actual staff strength of the National Assembly;
* To determine the current structure and distribution of staff in terms of cadre, spread, etc,;
* To establish skill gaps or excess capacity (if any) within the workforce;
* Determine the structure and distribution of staff required for an ideal legislative management system, align it with the current staff status of the National Assembly and� determine an accurate personnel cost thereof;
* Recommend all such other actions as it deems necessary to ensure an efficient and highly motivated workforce.
Sani-Omolori said that it was also agreed between the consultant and the Committee that the process should be completed by the end of first quarter of 2017 with the submission of the final report.
