on administrative leave pending a review by Minister with responsibility for the Natural Resources sector, Raphael Trotman.

Minister of State, Joseph Harmon said yesterday that the life of the current GGMC Board comes to an end on December 31. And Government is contemplating the appointment of a new Board.
In the interim, Harmon said that the Board would be allowed to make its decisions on daily matters.
