Government boards.

There are 108 different boards, each under the various Government departments, and any changes in the groups are usually published during the last week of the year.

At present the boards have not been published and civil servants are working on the final details of the committees.

A Government spokesman said he expected the boards to be released in the next few days.

There is no indication of any major changes on any of the boards, many of which saw wholesale movements following the 1998 PLP election win.

The show in Bermuda runs until February 17.
