More than four months after the announcement of their selection, members of the Natural Resource Fund Board were yesterday sworn in and given their instruments of appointment by President Irfaan Ali who reiterated that his government will not interfere in the Board’s work.
In addition, members of the Public Accountability and Oversight Committee and the Investment Committee were named and given their letters of appointment.
And while United Kingdom Labour Member of Parliament, David Lammy, was named with the others to the NRF Board in April, Ali yesterday announced that he had asked to be taken off the list, given his commitments in his home country. He has been replaced by former Caribbean Development Bank President, Professor Compton Bourne.
