she said thatjust was not appropriate. however, she suggested that the same goal could be achieved whereby i became a part time civil servant and i could therefore, if you like, be an adviser to the civil service, but while still a civil servant, and i could then take on the greensill capital appointment. you know, in the press, the phrase double hatting has been used, and ijust feel that s not appropriate. this was a transitional arrangement. to be clear, when i took up the appointment with greensill capital, greensill capital had never done any work for the public sector and they did not do so for hmg for over another two years.
