The Chief Minister, Deputy Kristina Moore, has announced the names of the States Members who will serve as Assistant Ministers in the new government.
Deputy Moore, who is the first woman to hold the post of Chief Minister, has appointed two Assistant Chief Ministers - Connétable Andy Jehan and Deputy Alex Curtis.
Deputy Moore said: "This is a strong and diverse team of Assistant Ministers, and I am very pleased they have agreed to serve as key members of the Government. They add to the talent and different perspectives that we have on the Council of Ministers, and we will work together for the good of all Islanders to meet the challenges we face and to put Jersey back on track.
"This will be a government that will strive to be open, visible and accessible and will listen to all members of our community. Assistant Ministers will play a central part in meeting these objectives."
Several Assistant Ministers have been given more than one portfolio, to ensure that the Government is co-ordinated and better equipped to deliver the cross-cutting change that Islanders voted for. Further appointments may be made in due course, as transfers of policy responsibilities are confirmed.
Deputy Moore added: "We will now embark on our plan for the first 100 days, our mini-budget to address the cost-of-living crisis, and setting our strategic priorities.
"I look forward to continuing to work across the Assembly, and constructively with Scrutiny, as we take this work forward, rebuilding trust and making Jersey a better place to live for everyone."
