The Top Level Appointments Committee (TLAC) recently made a recommendation to the Minister for Finance on the filling of the Chief Financial Officer. Based on the interview and documentation, the Preliminary Interview Board identified those candidates who in the Board’s judgement are suitable for appointment to the post under consideration, generally to a maximum of 5 candidates. Following the conclusion of that process, one of those 5 candidates has been deemed successful in the competition and will be appointed to the post shortly.
