Breaking News - Integrity Commission boss resigns
Published: Wednesday | September 2, 2009
Chairman of the Integrity Commission, Kenneth Lewis, has resigned after tax authorities attempted to seize the assets of two New Kingston businesses of which he was a director.
The enforcement team from the Tax Administration Services Department attempted to seize the assets last week after the institutions' failure to file taxes of some $100 million, inclusive of penalties.
"In order not to compromise the Integrity Commission in any way, I have written to Sir Patrick Allen, governor general of Jamaica, tendering my resignation from the commission with immediate effect," Lewis said in a release issued last night.
