The Committee of Appointments of Parliament has nominated trade unionist Carvil Duncan to sit as a member of the Local Government Commission (LGC).
According to the second report of the Committee laid in the National Assembly on Monday, Duncan was selected following a process of consultation with the bodies that represent trade unions within the Local Government System.
The report explains that at its January 13, 2021 meeting the Committee noted that the life of the Commission expired on October 22, 2020. In keeping with Section 4 (1) of the Local Government Commission Act, a decision was therefore taken to write to the relevant trade unions requesting nominees and letters were dispatched on January 20, 2021.
