Murr to Replace Abu Jamra after He Refused to Head Committee
Defense Minister Elias Murr will replace Issam Abu Jamra as head of a ministerial committee after the deputy prime minister refused to implement a decision that put him in charge of the panel.
Abu Jamra had insisted that he will not head the committee tasked with providing a study on a mechanism for appointments to top posts in the public service before the issue of the deputy premier powers had been settled.
