As you are most likely aware, the Premier has today announced the Cabinet reshuffle he foreshadowed last week, as a result of Minister Courtney’s departure.
If you have not already heard from your Secretary or Head of Agency on how these changes may affect you and your colleagues, you will hear from them shortly.
The Premier and Ministers attended Government House this morning at 11.30am for the swearing in ceremony.
Broadly, the changes welcome Nic Street as a new Minister, and see a number of other portfolios change.
My thanks go to the many State Servants who will now work to brief Ministers on their new portfolio areas, and will support them with ongoing policy advice and information.
The Premier’s statement about the changes can be found HERE and the full list of the ministers and their portfolios are listed below:
