Following an open and competitive process and in accordance with the Governance Code on Public Appointments, I am pleased to announce that I have selected Vernon Everitt as my preferred candidate to take up the role as the new Chair of Transport for Wales’ Board.
This appointment is subject to pre-appointment scrutiny by the Senedd which will take place on 19 June. Following the pre-appointment hearing, I will make my final decision on the appointment and update members accordingly.
