Jacobs Matthews To Retire As Auditor General
Government House today [May 10] announced that Mrs Heather Jacobs Matthews will finish up as Auditor General of Bermuda on Wednesday, 11 May 2016.
“Ms Heather Thomas will take up her duties as Auditor General as of Monday, 6 June 2016. During the interregnum, Mr Claude Nantel [12 to 19 May] and Ms Tracey Pitt [20 May to 5 June] will be Acting Auditor General,” a spokesperson said.
Governor George Fergusson, said: “I take this opportunity to pay tribute to the enormous commitment and professionalism of Heather Jacobs Matthews as Auditor General of Bermuda over the past several years.
“During my time in Bermuda I have seen for myself the extraordinarily high standards that she has brought to the role.
“Mrs Matthews has shown exceptional commitment and brought a real sense of duty to her work. She has also worked diligently to ensure that she remained robustly independent in carrying out her duties in an often difficult constitutional role. I wish her all the best in the future.”
Deserves a long and happy retirement. Good job well done. Thank you.
Well done, faithful and HONEST servant. Thank you abundantly, Heather.
Enjoy your well-earned retirement.
Oh – so we do have a constitution! Does the OBA and the Bermuda government know we have a constitution? The government is antecedent to the Bermuda Constitution Order 1968. Why the sudden retirement? Given the inquiry into financial misdoings it would be good to have her intimate knowledge of the matters available.
Quo Fata Ferunt
Thank you Mrs. Matthews for your service and fortitude, proud of you!
Thank you for your unbiased service to your country.
Take a nice vacation and then chill my dear.
Shalom.
Thank you Ms Jacobs Mathews, Bermuda is indebted to you
Although I respect her decision and I’m sure she deserves it, can we please have a replacement that’s younger so we can have some sort of consistency?
You should be asking for someone with Heather’s experience – younger is a no no
Phenomenal woman ,Excellent Auditor General.Peace.
GOOD RIDDANCE…..NOT ONE REPORT ON THE OBA!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for your service and fortitude!
Thank you for your great service to BERMUDA.
Hopefully they bring in someone who will actually release reports that are less than 4 years after the fact. Bring back Larry Dennis!
Thank you for your sterling performance within the Public Service and best wishes for a long and happy retirement.
