Mervyn Storey: Concerns raised as DUP politician made EA chair

A Sinn Féin assembly member has questioned Education Minister Paul Givan’s appointment of a party colleague to a senior role, adding that he must show a “clear commitment to transparency”.

Paul Givan announced fellow Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) politician Mervyn Storey as the new chair of the board of the Education Authority (EA) on Thursday.

Storey, a former Stormont minister who sits on the EA’s board, has a “sound understanding of the education landscape”, Givan said.

However, Sinn Féin’s Pat Sheehan said Storey’s “previous role as a DUP minister, MLA, and current DUP councillor raises obvious questions for the minister about the appointment”.
