Faces for the "Faceless" commissioners

category antrim | miscellaneous | opinion/analysis author Thursday September 21, 2006 10:12author by W L Blower Report this post to the editors

Just in case anyone in the SEELB area was wondering who the Governments appointed commissioners are. As you can see they represent a wide range of views that will enable them to make the right choices for the children, parents and employees in the area. Just checking there are two blue moons in the sky, and the pigs are on the runway ready for take off!!!!
Douglas Osler- Chairman of the Scottish Conservative policy advisory group.
Joan Christie O.B.E- Company Director, Chair of Ballymoney District policing partnership, Deputy Lieutenant of the county.
Lawson McDonald-Accountant and former senior executive with the investment agency the Industrial Development Board.
Pat Carvill-Former permanent secretary of the Department of education and the Department of finance and personnel in Northern Ireland, Member of the Government appointed Advisory Council of the Partnership UK 2002/03. PUK works with its public sector partners to deliver PFI/PPP solutions.

As you can see the Government have picked the perfect "Hitmen/women" for the rubber stampng job in hand.!!

I have heard that Douglas Osler wanted to stay in the Culloden Hotel when he came/comes over here from his plush house in Lothian, but the Board wouldnt allow it simply because of the fear of NIPSA finding out about it. Conservative or what? Its what I would expect from the Scottish Conservative Party policy driver. Tally-ho! Jolly Hockey-sticks!!!
