It’s been six months since the Ministry of Customs and Revenue has been operating without a Chief Executive Officer.
The post was advertised last year November and in February Cabinet ended the contract extension for Matafeo Avalisa Viali-Fautualii while the Public Service Commission carried out its normal hiring process for the lead role.
Six months later the MCR continues to operate with Assistant Chief Executive officers rotating as CEO’s.
Two months ago, the former Matafeo questioned the Public Service Commission on the status of the lead post for the MCR.
In an email to the Chair of the PSC, Lauano Vaosa Epa obtained by Radio Polynesia, Matafeo enquired about the progress of the PSC’s process with the post of the CEO of the MCR that was closed on the 19th of November 2021.
Lauano has yet to respond to the queries on the position.
