New MP given responsibility for Crown Dependencies

A new MP has responsibility for the Crown Dependencies, including the Isle of Man.

UK Prime Minister Theresa May had a cabinet reshuffle earlier this week, making David Gauke the new Secretary of State for Justice and Lord Chancellor.

The MP for South West Hertfordshire's new role includes overseeing the UK's relationship with the Crown Dependencies.

He takes over the position from David Lidington, who visited the Island last month.
