The word out is that the Opposition Leader has named his third Senate representative.
His name is Matthew Joseph, a retired educator from the parish of St. John.
The opposition leader on Friday said and I quote “the recommendation was made and now we await the steps to follow” unquote.
The constitution provides for the Leader of the Opposition to recommend 3 senators to represent him or her in the 13-member Upper House.
The next steps will be the presentation of the instrument of appointment from the Governor-General and taking the oath of office at the next senate session.
The current opposition leader’s senators are Terry Noel and Tessa St. Cyr.
