Ronald Charles officially appointed as UWP senator

Attorney, Ronald Charles, has been officially appointed as the replacement for ousted UWP senator, Dr Thompson Fontaine.

UWP had chosen Charles to replace Dr Thomson Fontaine who, according to Prime Minister Skerrit, was removed as senator because he missed three consecutive sittings of parliament without “the expressed authority of the Speaker.”
