Prior to his recent departure, former governor of the Turks and Caicos Islands, Gordon Wetherell, released to the public the final report of the Turks and Caicos Islands 2008-9 Commission of Inquiry into possible corruption, or other serious dishonesty in relation to past and present elected members of the legislature.
The document – which is available here – consists of the full and final version of the report delivered to the governor by the Commissioner, Sir Robin Auld, on 31 May 2009.
The principal area of interest for most people in the 265-page report will be the findings of possible corruption and/or other serious dishonesty on the part of former Cabinet ministers and the recommendation made by the Commissioner for further action in this regard.
In relation to former Premier Michael Misick, the Commission recommends criminal investigation by police or others in relation to him of possible corruption and/or other serious dishonesty including misfeasance in public office.
In relation to former finance minister Floyd Hall, the Commission recommends criminal investigation by police or others in relation to him of possible corruption and/or other serious dishonesty including theft and false accounting and misfeasance in public office.
