A sacked Minister of Mines, Energy and Rural Electrification of Solomon Islands, David Pacha has been recalled to the position of Deputy Speaker of the Parliament.
Mr Pacha was relieved from his duty over allegations of having a secret meeting with a mining company executive late at night at a hotel car park.
He was elected unopposed to the post when the Parliament resumed yesterday.
Pacha and the Member of Parliament for East Fataleka, Steve Abana were the two nominees for the position but the latter withdrew candidacy before the Parliament resumed yesterday.
The Deputy Speaker position was vacated after the MP for East Are Are, Andrew Manepora was reappointed as Minister of Lands, Housing and Survey in the recent cabinet shakeup.
