<\/p>\n
Labor Enforcement Division director Gil San Nicolas was appointed as acting secretary\u00a0on Friday.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
San Nicolas’ appointment was made on the same day when Gov. Ralph DLG Torres accepted the courtesy resignation of now former\u00a0secretary Edith Deleon Guerrero.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
San Nicolas would remain in an acting capacity until Torres appoints Deleon Guerrero’s permanent replacement.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Torres, in a statement Friday, thanked Deleon Guerrero for her years of service at Labor and wished her the best in her future endeavors.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“[She] has worked very hard and has been intricately involved with the complex events following federal control over immigration in the CNMI. I wish her the best in her future endeavors and commend her for the work she has accomplished.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Deleon Guerrero was part of the CNMI panel in the 902 talks last year; the report is already with congressional leaders for review.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Her department was also at the forefront in implementing local labor laws and investigating the alleged treatment of workers who entered the CNMI as tourists.<\/p>\n
