Dec 7 2012

"Norbert Hauser has been named interim inspector general of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria," Devex's "Development Newswire" reports, adding, "The recently retired lawyer and international auditor will serve in this temporary appointment for up to nine months while the Global Fund searches for a permanent inspector general to replace John Parsons," whose employment was terminated last month (Mungcal, 12/5). "Hauser will not be a candidate for the permanent position," a Global Fund press release notes, adding, "Rather, he will maintain consistency in the work of the Office of the Inspector General, with a focus on providing seamless leadership and strategic guidance to staff of the Office of the Inspector General during his interim tenure" (12/5).
