The Guernsey Financial Services Commission has appointed The Rt Hon Lord Henley as its new Commissioner, following the passing of Baroness Couttie.
Oliver Henley is a member of the House of Lords and the Joint Committee on Human Rights. He has served under four Prime Ministers and most recently worked at the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.
He was called to the Bar in 1977 and was appointed to the Privy Council in 2013.
“I’m delighted to welcome Lord Henley to the Board of Commissioners,” said The Commission’s Chairman, Julian Winser.
“He brings considerable experience of UK politics and high-calibre expertise, which will prove invaluable as we work to deliver proportionate regulation to meet international standards.”
