[edit] "Elected"?

The article says (and I have heard said elsewhere) that the G-G is "elected" by the Solomon Islands parliament. How is this reconciled with the theory that the G-G is just a representative of the Queen? In the article on the G-G of Papua New Guinea, it says that the G-G of that state is nominated by the parliament. Would it be more accurate to put it this way for the Solomon Islands? --Jfruh 19:52, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
