Increasingly, senior members of the bureaucracy are appointed on contract. Such contracts can often be terminated without the need to give reasons. Presumably some dismissals will be motivated by partisan, or party-political, considerations. Where this is so, what role might there be for anti-discrimination legislation, particularly that denying discrimination on the grounds of political belief or activity in the workplace? - Reproduced
