ARRG/VERR/ADC Project tasks are not WF authorised positions. They are a temporary liability created specifically for a task and of a short duration; up to 12 months @ up to 90 RSDs, and therefore boarding and selection for these jobs does not attract substantive promotion or granting of AHR or SUPA. A JPAN can be rank ranged to facilitate selection in a lower rank than advertised. However, the intent is to fill the positions in the advertised rank and in only exceptional circumstances will a lower rank be selected to run to board.
