The Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit has had no director for seven months

Seven months after the resignation of Manfred Galdes, the Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit remains without a director.

You will see from this organisational chart that in the absence of a director, there is nobody to give direction to the unit.

The FIAU’s board of governors is chaired by the Attorney General, a great pal of the current government who not even been embarrassed to blur boundaries by sharing a box at the theatre with the Justice Minister and his girlfriend, a Labour Party television propagandist.

The Attorney-General should be challenged about the state of affairs at the Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit and about his several conflicts of interest in his public roles and personal alliances.
