The Committee

The CGi Committee is made up of a cross-section of member companies. We pay close attention to local government policies which would potentially impact on the commercial interests of our members. Through our committee, the CGi consults with the States of Guernsey, advising the various departments on the views and interests of our members.

Each committee representative is elected by our membership. Members serve a term which lasts for about x years before they are re-elected.
