The Governor, Mr George Fergusson, said:
“I take this opportunity to pay tribute to the enormous commitment and professionalism of Heather Jacobs Matthews as Auditor General of Bermuda over the past several years. During my time in Bermuda I have seen for myself the extraordinarily high standards that she has brought to the role. Mrs Matthews has shown exceptional commitment and brought a real sense of duty to her work. She has also worked diligently to ensure that she remained robustly independent in carrying out her duties in an often difficult constitutional role. I wish her all the best in the future.”
