b]    How many have been appointed/absorbed in the Provincial Government

We are proud to note that 451 interns have met the requirements, applied competitively and have been appointed in the Provincial Government.

The Public Service Regulations do not provide for absorption into positions.  Interns must apply for vacant positions, as advertised, and go through a selection process.
