On behalf of the Commissioners, NIC Chairman Sir John Armitt, said:
‘‘I would like to thank James for his excellent leadership, guidance and support enabling the Commissioners and the executive team to produce a series of reports and the second NIA, which will inform government in the production of the ten-year infrastructure strategy. We wish James all the best in his future role’’.
After leaving the Commission, James will take up a new private sector role at Flint Global.
