Statistics on Defering a Start Date For a New Post

Ian Smith made this Freedom of Information request to Scottish Government

The request was refused by Scottish Government.

From: Ian Smith

5 April 2009

Dear Sir or Madam,

How many times in the last three years (from todays date) have
successful interview candidates been able to defer taking up a post
with the organisation for more than one month? Can the figures be
broken down into periods of:
1-6 months; 6-12 months; 13 months or more.

Can you also tell me if there is an upper limit on how long your
organisation is willing to allow someone to defer taking up a post.

Yours faithfully,

Ian Smith
