Public Boards and Committees. We have a bad habit in
Prominent among these are the different boards and committees. Some were committees set up by government. Some are statutory corporations. Some are the boards elected by the shareholders of public companies. There are other public institutions of all kinds. All of them are invested with the public trust in relation to public property and assets. Some of them are responsible for hundreds of thousands of dollars. In some cases we have entrusted them with hundreds of millions of dollars.

The lizard’s seeing-eye that illustrates the top of this post indicates that I am asking you to be my seeing eye. This post requires any helpful response you can make. Am I missing any boards or committees? Do you have any information on who are their present members? Do you know what they are paid? Have you any idea what they have done recently to justify their existence? Is there any shadow surrounding any of their activities?
Please send me an email at the above address. We will then look at them one by one in subsequent postings.
Some of the listed companies have websites with the names of who are on the board. If you go to Anguilla Community Foundation, CCB, NBA, Social Security and a few others the names are there. I would hope it is updated.
