LEON GALLIENNE was surprised to find out he was the subject of a vote of no confidence over his leadership of the Public Accounts Committee.
Graham Guille put forward the motion, which was backed by seven other deputies, after a meeting last week.
Deputy Guille first said he would consider asking for the vote after last month’s States meeting when PAC’s continued work with the Wales Audit Office was discussed.
He was unhappy that Deputy Gallienne (pictured) had remained silent when questions were raised about the committee’s work.
Deputy Gallienne heard about the no-confidence vote through the media.
‘Not one of the signatories has contacted me personally to let me know about it, although I have been made aware of it by other members.’
Deputy Gallienne said the prospect of such a vote would have no impact on his committee’s work.

What a joke this assembly really is.
Serious problems are found with our government.
Do they address the issues? No, they gang up and go after the people who commisioned the study.
Is there a way that the public can have a vote of no confidence in the deputies?
Can’t we force an election?
