ECA welcomes new construction minister
This week, ECA sent a letter to Anne-Marie Trevelyan, new Construction Minister, welcoming her new appointment.
On Friday (January 8) Alok Sharma left his role of Business Secretary to focus full time as president of COP26. Kwasi Kwarteng, after less than a month as Construction Minister, was promoted to Business Secretary.
Anne-Marie Trevelyan is MP for Berwick upon Tweed. She previously held the post of Secretary of State for International Development, until it merged with the FO in September.
