Following some lingering doubt as to whether she would remain in Cayman, Complaints Commissioner Nicola Williams has been reappointed for another year.
Ms. Williams confirmed the reappointment on Friday and said her current contract will take her through August 2015. Her first contract with the office expired this month.
The complaints commissioner, according to the local law that established the office, is typically reappointed for five-year stretches that can be revoked only by the governor for specific reasons such as loss of mental competency, financial destitution and the like.
Ms. Williams declined to comment Friday regarding why her posting had been renewed only for an additional year.
In addition to the short-term contract for the complaints commissioner, another independently appointed government office, the information commissioner, has been without a permanent leader since former Commissioner Jennifer Dilbert retired in December.
Jan Liebaers, the deputy information commissioner, has been serving as acting commissioner since the departure of Mrs. Dilbert.
