67: Public service employees: interdepartmental ventures

You could also call this:

"Rules for public service employees working on joint projects with other departments"

When you are part of an interdepartmental venture in the public service, the board in charge can appoint employees to work for them. The board can choose the employees they think are necessary, including those on fixed-term employment agreements. They can also remove an employee from their job at any time, as long as they follow the conditions in the employee's employment agreement.

The board has the same rights and duties as an employer, except where this Act says otherwise. You can find more information about this by looking at the Public Service Act 2020 and similar laws, such as the one from 1988 No 20 s 59(1). This means the board is responsible for making decisions about the employees working for the interdepartmental venture.
