Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what ministerial vacancies exist; and when each one became vacant.
This question was answered on 16th April 2019
The number of ministers appointed to Her Majesty's Government, and the roles to which they are appointed, are not fixed.
As has been the case under successive Administrations, the number of ministers in post will vary from time to time, subject to the prevailing legislation in the Ministerial and Other Salaries Act 1975 and the House of Commons Disqualification Act 1975.
