Reports from Melbourne say Des Linehan, Federal secretary of the Administra tive and Clerical Officers Association, is expected to be appointed a Commonwealth Public Service Board commissioner from month end. The development, confirmed by sources near Labour Minister Cameron, unsettles the ACOA, with Stan Imer and Norm Campbell named as possible successors. Linehan’s move would fill a major gap and shift leadership dynamics within the public service and union circles.
