There’s still about 11 ASG departments and agencies awaiting appointment of directors in the new cabinet of Governor Lolo Moliga and Lt. Governor Lemanu Peleti Mauga.

These include Human Resources, Department of Marine and Wildlife Resources, Office of Property Management, Office of Public Information, Territorial Administration on Aging Office and Territorial Audit Office.

Agencies whose directors have not been named include the Environmental Protection Agency, Criminal Justice Agency, Arts Council, Office of Disaster Assistance and Petroleum Management and Office of Protection and Advocacy.

The deputies of these departments and agencies are serving as acting directors in the interim.

The names of more than a dozen director nominees have been submitted to the Fono.

The Fono has recessed for two weeks and when it reconvenes, confirmation of directors will be the first order of business.
