A conflict of interest hearing is being held for the President & CEO of NB Liquor for allegedly breaching the province’s Conflict of Interest Act. Dana Clendenning was appointed President and CEO of the province’s Crown Corporation just days after Premier Shawn Graham was elected Premier in 2006.
Before that Clendenning became involved with Fredericton businessman Barry O’Donnell and offered to lobby for funding to help grow and support O’Donnell’s call centre business. O’Donnell says he received invoices for services rendered by Clendenning’s consulting company until April 2007. Under the Conflict of Interest Act, those employed as heads of crown corporations are not permitted to carry on other business. The hearing for Clendenning is scheduled for June 4th.
