I see this as an opportunity to use my skills and knowledge to contribute to this Department and the Turks & Caicos Government going forward.
I see this as an opportunity for self-development as well, because I know change is inevitable and we need to push ourselves out of our self-proclaimed ‘comfort zones’ into areas where we can push ourselves to further expertise and talent.
With this in mind, I thank the head of the Civil Service and the Ministry of Finance for giving me this opportunity and I commit myself to the unit as much as possible.”
Deputy Governor and Head of Public Service, Her Excellency Anya Williams in congratulatory words for Ms. Hall-Greene said:
“Congratulations Mrs. Shatelia Hall-Greene for her appointment as the new Deputy Director of the Financial Transactions and Information Exchange Unit after the promotion of the former Deputy Director Mrs. Nasiya Misick-Dickenson to the post of Deputy Secretary in the Ministry. of Finance, Trade and Investments.
It is always gratifying to see civil servants advancing and moving up the ranks of the public service.
The Financial Transactions and Information Exchange Unit is responsible for the exchange of tax-related information between the Turks and Caicos Islands and its Treaty partners in accordance with agreed standards to help combat tax evasion and enhance the image of the TCI with our international tax partners and regulatory organizations.
I wish Ms. Hall-Greene every success in her new role and congratulate her on her well-deserved promotion.
Congratulations Shatelia!”
