Chief Constable appointment

25th October 2010 - Article 27 of the Charter requires the Management Council to appoint a Chief Constable. As a member of the Management Council, as well as a former Constable, I am pleased to officially announce that we have unanimously agreed to appoint D. Matt Innis as Chief Constable with immediate effect.

This act also ends Ruth Ifcher's appointment as Chief Constable. I would like to publicly thank her, both personally and on behalf of the Management Council, for her years of service and hard work to Citizendium. Although most of her work was behind the scenes, she has remained dedicated and a source of inspiration and support to all Constables.

We have not yet appointed any other Constables, or reviewed the Constabulary status of any current Constable. We shall do this in the near future in conjunction with the new Chief Constable. Also, as we now have an active Constable once again Chris Key shall stop performing Constable duties as he has been doing in this brief interim period.
