Government reshuffle focused on people’s priorities
(CNS): Premier Wayne Panton said the reshuffling and restructuring of government ministries has been done to help his new Cabinet meet the commitments they made to the people during the election campaign and manage the breadth of subject areas for which each minister is responsible more effectively. The new organisational chart shows the subject areas of each minster as well as the senior leadership, civil service agencies, statutory authorities, as well as government companies, boards and committees.
“Members of my team all made commitments to our constituents during the election that we are committed to meeting,” said Panton. All of the policy areas across the government have an important role to play in our ability to deliver on our promises to the Cayman Islands. I believe the new structure best reflects an approach that will allow us to ensure that all of the policy areas across the government will benefit from an increased emphasis and focus for the benefit of our people.
“Moving policy areas from the previous larger ministry structure into separate, dedicated ministries, will allow us to increase the focus on high priority areas such as health, labour, sustainability and education, and I am very pleased to report that we are already working hard to make positive things happen,” Panton added.
Deputy Governor and Head of the Civil Service Franz Manderson said the civil service’s goal is to provide the PACT Government with world class support in a shared agenda of improving the lives of Caymanians and residents, and this was reflected in the new structure.
“The new structure also presents us with an opportunity to be agile and innovative in deploying our talent, particularly in the areas of finance and human resources, to most effectively support the new structure,” he said. “I am also pleased that this new structure is creating development opportunities for some of our aspiring Caymanian leaders across the civil service, which will only help to enhance our capacity for succession planning.”

Better than the last, honestly.
Worried? Look at it this way: It couldn’t be any worse!!!
Please reshuffle again because Julianna SHOULD NOT be in charge of education any longer!
Louder because they don’t seem to be able to hear us!
Louder!!!
Now that reshuffling is done maybe they can start working on concrete criteria for the-opening plan and establish scenarios/thresholds that would require changes in this policy.
no more concrete thank you!
Unfortunately, the Titanic has already sunk.. this might be the last hope of even finding out if anything can be salvaged after the PPM scuttled the ship.
Reshuffle is a euphemism for give the ministers something they can vaguely pretend to understand so they don’t play with their phones on fall asleep during presentations.
Now that the priorities are reshuffled, can I please get my NAU benefits? My stipend is not cutting it.
Every day we shuffilin’, shuffilin’
Now that things are reshuffled, how about opening the border without a quarantine for those vaccinated so we can get on with life! People moving on everywhere else- making progress, opening up.
Now that Government has been reshuffled, please end this 19 member constituencies election system nightmare and institute National Elections. You’ll have 4 years, get it done.
This dude is finally talking!
As much as I want that to happen, I’m not very optimistic that it would.
Agreed!
Not a problem
15 seats max
“I am very pleased to report that we are already working hard to make positive things happen.”
Care to enlighten us?
