Tim Crookall moved from Infrastructure in CoMin reshuffle
The minister without portfolio has been defending his new role in the House of Keys.
Tim Crookall was moved from Infrastructure to the new position during a reshuffle of the chief minister's Council of Ministers last week.
In today's sitting (Tuesday 3 December), Mr Crookall said his role was to assist with the millions of pounds of 'efficiencies' Alf Cannan is hoping to make throughout government.
But he urged members to give him a chance before criticising his new role:
