News story: Ministerial appointments: January 2018

This government is about building a country fit for the future – one that truly works for everyone with a stronger economy and a fairer society.

This reshuffle helps us do just that by bringing fresh talent into government, boosting delivery in key policy areas like housing, health and social care, and ensuring the government looks more like the country it serves.

It also allows a new generation of gifted ministers to step up and make life better for people across the whole UK.
