New appointments, including a new deputy chairperson and two new board members, have been made at the Independent Liquor and Gaming Authority in New South Wales, Australia.
Existing member Chris Honey has been appointed deputy chairperson, and associate professor Amelia Thorpe and Nicholas Nichles have been appointed to the board.
The appointments follow the end of the term of appointment for outgoing deputy chairperson Sarah Dinning, and also fill vacancies that existed on the board.
Honey, who was appointed a member of ILGA earlier in 2024, has been named deputy chairperson until the end of his current appointment term in February 2027.
Thorpe and Nichles have both been appointed for four years starting November 6, 2024.
Thorpe is with the Faculty of Law & Justice at the University of New South Wales and an acting commissioner of the NSW Land and Environment Court. Nichles was previously a consul general and senior trade and investment commissioner for Australian Government agency Austrade, based in the US.
The new appointments bring the ILGA board membership to seven.
