Abstract

The article analyses the duty of confidentiality concerning recruitment of the President of the Public Procurement Office, the Surveyor General and a court director. In the first two cases we deal with the status of a central government administrative body, the case of a court director involves an employment relationship by appointment. The text analyses the principles for the recruitment of the President of the Public Procurement Office, the Surveyor General and a court director, and then the issues of confidentiality of recruitment to those positions. The principles of recruitment to the position of the President of the Public Procurement Office and the Surveyor General are fairly similar. The position is filled by way of open and competitive recruitment. The duty of confidentiality obliges members of the recruitment team, but also a non-member who has been commissioned to perform an assessment. Confidentiality concerns personal information of candidates for the position of the President of the Public Procurement Office and the Surveyor General acquired in the course of recruitment. The issues of recruitment of a court director have been regulated somewhat differently. In the case of a court director there is a competition which is ordered and carried out by the president of a given appellate, regional or district court. A court director is nominated by the Minister of Justice. The duty of confidentiality obliges members of the competition committee appointed by the president of a given court. Confidentiality concerns information concerning candidates for a court director acquired in the course of the competition. The text discusses the substantive and the objective scope of confidentiality concerning recruitment of the President of the Public Procurement Office, the Surveyor General and a court director.
