Regional Development Agencies

Volume 450: debated on Thursday 12 October 2006

I have decided to appoint the new Board Members listed at annexe A and to reappoint the Board Members, listed at annexe B. The new appointments will all be for a period of three years; the reappointments will also be for a period of three years with the exception of Rob Anderson of the South East Development Agency (SEEDA) who will be reappointed for a further two years.

The new appointments, with the exception of Fiona Pollard (SEEDA), and the reappointments will begin on 14 December 2006 and will expire on 13 December 2009. Fiona Pollard took up appointment on 1 September 2006, in order to fill an existing Board Member vacancy, and her appointment will expire on 13 December 2009.

I have placed further details of both the new appointments and reappointments in the Libraries of both Houses. All of them were made in accordance with the code of practice of the Commissioner for Public Appointments.
