The Opposition NDP is calling on the provincial government to scrap all new appointees to the Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission.

At a news conference Monday, NDP MLA Meara Conway said the commission is supposed to be independent, but a second newly-appointed commissioner is being connected to the Sask.

Conway said that Alan Thomarat is the co-president of Justice Minister Bronwyn Eyre's local Sask.

The government says in a statement that commissioners work as a consultative body for the commission and that they do not have any role in the complaint process or how it is resolved.

Before the constituency boundaries changed, he did serve on the executive, on which his governance experience and expertise were extremely valuable," the province said in a statement.

"The very partisan narrative being crafted by the Opposition, suggesting that anyone who has ever been politically active in the community, at any level, cannot go on to serve on a public body in an unbiased, honourable, and honest fashion, is disappointing to say the least."
