ERROR RG P4 6.1.1998 A story in Friday's newspaper incorrectly stated that David Hamshere had replaced Alan Richardson as chairman of the Tourism Board in the New Year's board changes. Mr. Hamshere became chairman in February, 1997.

Leadership, dedication and impartiality are three attributes the new chairman of the Broadcast Commission will bring to the table.

Lt. Col. Brendan Hollis, who became the chairman of the Commission effective on January 1, said that he was looking forward to his new position.

"I hope to bring a sense of transparency to the position,'' he said. "I have not had a chance to speak, either to the other members or the previous chairman.

"But I am all for new people coming into the industry if they think that they can improve the service.

"And if those who are already established can work to produce a cheaper service, that is fine too. But I am all for competition and transparency and good service to the public.''
