Rose Hall Town Clerk resigns after controversy

The Local Government Commission (LGC) has approved Rose Hall’s Market Clerk to act as Town Clerk (TC) after the acting Town Clerk appointed by its council resigned.

“The media kept reporting on this back and forth and I didn’t want to be a political football so I resigned,” the former TC, who described his one month on the job as “excellent”, told Stabroek News

Speaking with this newspaper yesterday the TC, who asked not to be named, explained that he applied for an advertised post and was invited to an interview. One month later he was informed that he was the successful candidate.
