The business end of Ilex’s operation has been led by Interim Chief Executive and Ilex’s designated Accounting Officer Mel Higgins, since Ms McGinley left for a job at the BBC Trust on Hallowe’en. Matt McNulty is the interim chair.
The Ministers said: “Interim arrangements are in place and remain so until the Chair and Chief Executive positions are filled.”
