Robertshaw resigns as head of policy and reform

Policy and Reform Minister Chris Robertshaw has resigned from his ministerial position.

It means he is no longer heading up the Cabinet Office – and as a result is no longer part of the Council of Ministers.

The East Douglas MHK is blaming the fact he wanted to be more radical with changes to government going forward.

Mr Robertshaw took up the position when the office was formed last year – prior to that he was in charge of the Department of Social Care.
