Derrick McKoy walks away from Jamaica’s Integrity Commission
Jamaica’s Integrity Commission has its second resignation within a year, as Dr Derrick McKoy is no longer interested in being a part of it.
Attorney-At-Law
McKoy, who is a former contractor general, delivered his resignation letter to
the chairman of the entity, Seymour Panton, recently and it has since been sent
to Governor General Sir Patrick Allen.
McKoy
was appointed to the Integrity Commission in March 2018.
In less than two years since the Integrity Commission has been constituted, it has now had three resignations, with the most notable being chairman Justice Karl Harrison, who stepped down in July.
Panton
took over as chairman, with the position vacated by Harrison being filled by
Justice Lloyd Hibbert in October.
Another
former contractor general Dirk Harrison resigned as acting director of
corruption prosecution last year as well.
