Government Reassigns Several Permanent Secretaries

Several senior public servants have been reassigned across government ministries in a reshuffle involving permanent secretaries.

Ambassador Dr. Clarence Pilgrim has been transferred from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to serve as Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Education.

Ina Dalso-Henry, who was moved from the Ministry of Health to Education last year, has now been reassigned as Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Creative Industries. Sharon Stevens will take up the role of Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Director General of Communications in the Prime Minister’s Office Maurice Merchant said the movement of permanent secretaries is a normal administrative practice within government.

“From time to time, they see it fit to move along or move around its permanent secretaries as it seeks to gain best fit for the various divisions,” Merchant said.

He added that such changes are routine in the public service and are intended to align experienced administrators with the ministries where their skills are most needed.
