Banker Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Just seen a news release confirming that Mark Lewin has been appointed chief operating officer for cabinet office & new CEO required for DFE . We already have a Chief Executive in cabinet office, why do we need a COO on massive package? More headcount being added 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Gay'n Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 I think that Will Greeenhow did some sort of made-up job for Mary Williams before she retired and was then anointed as her heir. The rest is a story of unimaginable success, perfectly executed strategy and the Isle of Man going from strenth to strength. Or something like that... It does look like like Mark Lewin ("I am Graham Ferguson Lacey's chosen successor") is being shooed in. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It noted that Mr Lewin had been integral in the restructuring of the Department and the development of the agencies. Had he made any positive contributions to economic development though?

Non-Believer Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 It's a little world of its own, of appointments, career advances...and, above all, looking after oneself. One wonders if this, and others, had any real democratic political scrutiny in respect of need or requirement before being sanctioned? Cabinet Office is now a huge PS edifice all of its own, the costs in salaries and running must be horrifying. 2 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleepyJoe Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 In Tynwald tomorrow will CoMin members deny excessive payroll spend whilst defending the 'judicious use' of the NI Fund to 'balance' their budget'? Any available surplus from the NI Fund really should go on living pensions to increase spending in the community 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
