To be clear, are you nominated for secondment or did you find the non-parent ministry yourself? Nowadays HR usually use secondment as a trick to actually "deploy" problematic staff.
I found the non-parent ministry myself. Secondment is offered by the ministry not by the SB HR. My original intention was to resign from SB then join the ministry like you but din expect the ministry to offer me secondment instead. I guess this trick is still uncommon since most people I surveyed resigned from their SB job b4 joining the ministry instead of taking the secondment path.
