(a) The affairs of the department shall be administered by a Chief Examiner, whose actions shall be supervised and controlled by a Legislative Committee on Public Accounts. The Chief Examiner shall be selected and appointed by the Legislative Committee on Public Accounts to serve for a term of seven years and until his successor is appointed and qualified.
