THE newly constituted board of the Independent Central Firearm Licensing Authority will have its first meeting on February 17.
A statement from the security ministry said the first order of business for board chairman Major General John Simmonds will be to preside over the selection of a CEO for the authority.
Major General Simmonds will be supported by five other board members:
. Ethan Sinclair;
. Noel Eldridge;
. Allison Moore;
. Rodney Conway S Chin; and
. George Overton.
The Independent Central Firearm Licensing Authority will act as the body charged with the granting of firearm licences in Jamaica, effectively removing this function from the police.
In the event that an application in rejected, applicants may appeal to a Review Board chaired by Justice Clarence Walker, who will be assisted by:
. Glen Andrade, and
. Isadore Hibbert.
