The organisation which makes sure there is enough competition between major companies in Jersey has been left without a chairman.
An audit by the Economic Development Committee found significant weaknesses, so the previous chairman, Dr Patrick McNutt, has not been reappointed.
The Competition and Regulatory authority regulates business competition in Jersey.
A candidate for chairman is expected to be proposed next month.
Competition law
Jersey's States members will meet again on Wednesday following a shortened debate on Tuesday due to the Royal visit by Prince Charles.
If approved, a new competition law will prevent companies making agreements which restrict competition.
A strategic plan is also scheduled for debate. This sets out objectives to be achieved by the year 2010, including population and environmental issues.
