B.C. Auditor General John Doyle, whose reappointment was recently voted down by a Liberal-dominated committee, has now been offered a two-year extension.
Premier Christy Clark announced the offer just over a week after Doyle’s reappointment was declined.
“The people of British Columbia need to have confidence that the right person is being selected for the right reasons, and that that process stands untainted by political agendas,” Clark said.
“And that doesn’t just have to be true, it has to be seen to be true by the citizens of British Columbia.”
