A temporary chief executive for the Crofting Commission has been announced.

 

Bill Barron joins the commission on an interim basis from Monday and will lead the organisation until a permanent appointment is made.

 

Previous chief executive, Catriona Maclean, has taken up a promotion within Scottish Government.

 

Mr Barroan will be moving from his position as head of the Scottish Government’s Housing Support and Homelessness Unit.

 

He worked within Scottish Government for over 18 years and has a wealth of experience in change management and delivery, policy development and finance.

 

Bill commented: “I am looking forward to working with everyone at the Crofting Commission and our partners, to ensure that the Commission remains focused on giving a good service to crofters, promoting and protecting the interests of crofting, and providing effective regulation.”
