The revolving door
Relations between ČEZ and Deloitte keep on revolving.
A month or two ago, I drew your attention to the plentiful business dealings between ČEZ and Deloitte Advisory. This week we learn that ČEZ will pick up two failed politicians, both from ODS: Petr Tluchoř, who comes directly from the chamber of deputies, and Ivo Hlaváč, straight from Deloitte. You all know about Tluchoř, so I will focus on Hlaváč.
Hlaváč is actually rejoining ČEZ, after a break from the firm of some six years, this time round as the firm's official lobbyist. ČEZ spokesman Ladislav Kříž confirmed that they had approached Hlaváč with such an offer. Kříž says he should take up his new post in January 2013.
Hlaváč never stops revolving as a matter of fact. He is a former deputy agriculture minister, a former deputy minister of regional development, a failed ODS parliamentary candidate in 2010, and a former deputy environment minister, from which last position he was released earlier this year. Today, Hlaváč works for Deloitte as a ‘Senior Manager for Energy’. So he is soon to become a former Deloittian!
If anyone could be bothered to examine, in the kind of forensic detail for which Deloitte is famous (or perhaps not, if you are Hewlett Packard), what Hlaváč did and did not do in his various ministerial posts, we might be in a better position to dismiss the suggestion made by Česká pozice, that Hlaváč never actually left ČEZ.
