Alderney Committee Election Sees Name Drawn From Hat

A split vote for a committee chair role resulted in two names going into a hat and the president pulling out the eventual winner.

Lin Maurice has been appointed chair of the General Services Committee after the odd situation involving a hat, two names and a president.

William Tate also had to use his casting vote to appoint a vice president after a split ballot. Ian Carter has been appointed to that position, a non political role.

The two Alderney representatives in Guernsey's States remain as Steve Roberts and Alex Snowdon, the latter also chairs the Economic Development Committee.

Nigel Vooght heads up the senior committee, Policy and Finance.
