Civil servants turnover 'problematic'- Lord Browne

Civil servants turnover 'problematic'-  Lord Browne
Lord Browne has warned that the high turnover of Britain’s most senior civil servants is “problematic” and threatens to undermine the Government’s effectiveness.

Lord Browne's comments to Civil Service World come after a warning from the Institute of Government's Jill Rutter, who claimed the departure of Dame Helen Ghosh - the first female permanent secretary at the Home Office - would leave Whitehall looking "maler and paler".
