The AMAPCEO delegation was headed by President Gary Gannage and included Association Secretary Barbara Gough, Executive Assistant Anthony Schein and Labour Relations Officer Jennifer Sherwood.
Gannage believes “we had a good exchange of views with the Commission” during the one-hour hearing. The AMAPCEO brief covered a number of issues, including AMAPCEO’s strong track record of generating creative ideas to modernize the Ontario Public Service; compensation developments in the OPS and the Broader Public Sector; our joint Job Evaluation Program as a means of promoting efficiency and effectiveness; and our desire to achieve excellence in public service.
The Commission is chaired by Don Drummond, a former chief economist at TD Bank and a former federal Associate Deputy Minister of Finance, and includes three other members: Dominic Giroux, President of Laurentian University; Susan Pigott, Vice-President Communications at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health; and Carol Stephenson, Dean of Business at the University of Western Ontario.
Announced by Finance Minister Dwight Duncan in the March 2011 provincial budget, the Commission has a mandate to “provide advice on how to deliver the most efficient and effective public services possible for people and families”. It is expected to present a report to the government in January.
