History

The Directorate of Finance was created on March 17, 2013, when the Government Finance Act received Royal Assent from His Royal Majesty.

  4. Provide advice on government fiscal policy to the Royal Chancellor;
  5. Administer the payroll office as defined in the Crown Servant Salary Act; and,
  6. Author and issue related reports;

Director

The Director of Finance was responsible for the administration of the Directorate as per Article 5 of the Government Finance Act. The only person who held the position of Director was John Leterd, who was appointed to the position by Royal Chancellor Liam Sinclair on August 25, 2015.
