ST. CROIX — The Kenneth Mapp nominees who have already been approved by the 31st Legislature will be sworn in during a ceremony at Government House in Christiansted today, according to a press release issued late last night by Kimberly Jones, the administration’s communications director.
These nominees do not include the 11 voted down by the Senate last Thursday over a salary increase impasse. Instead, they are commissioners or directors whose salaries remained the same as in the previous administration, or whose salaries were lower than their predecessors.

The event begins at 10:00 a.m. this morning in the ballroom on the second floor.
According to Government House, the ceremony will be repeated in St. Thomas on Wednesday for cabinet members who live there.
