Detailed Outline
In recent years there has been a rapid increase in the use of mobile phones throughout Government agencies. Whilst it is recognised that mobile phones are a useful and in some cases necessary form of communication, Ministers are reminded of the need to exercise restraint in their use and distribution across their respective portfolios.
Accordingly, Ministers should require Chief Executives within their portfolios to ensure that appropriate controls and monitoring mechanisms are in place regarding the use and associated costs of mobile phones. Particular attention should be paid to personal components of telephone accounts.
